Looking at the seating chart, and confirming it with actual pictures, Row K on the left and right sides of the theatre is elevated pretty far above the rows in front of it. The only thing that would worry me is specifically the railing at the aisle seat that wraps around you at the center aisle side of the seat. Has anyone here sat there, and does the railing obstruct the view in any way? Thanks!

I had a friend who had a seat near there and it was good! He was able to move over towards the center aisle because it was a matinee that wasn’t completely sold out. In fact, at intermission he was able to move up to the front row of the orchestra. I highly recommend this production.

^ ^ ^ Thanks! This show and GARY were on my original list along with BEETLEJUICE and a couple others, to try and narrow down to make it a most memorable birthday. Wish FIDDLER were shorter than 3hrs, it makes for a long walk back to the hotel. Trying to pick just three or four shows is too hard. Do wish the TONY AWARDS were next week already!
The row with the wraparound railing at the bottom of this pic is row G, not K. Row K has a regular railing in front of it, and there's no obstruction.
^ ^ ^ Indeed, you are correct. Thanks for pointing that out! I found a better picture than what was on A View From My Seat that was taken from the stage area looking out into the audience, and it shows a much better view of those rows.
