Is the St. James theater a big theater? Because I looked for tickets that were in the last row of the orchestra...but i wasnt sure if i should get them bc i wasn't sure of how big the theater was...Also are the seats small...or do they give alittle room like the gershwin seats...The reason im asking this is because I might take my mom and she needs alittle room in the seat...Hope you all can help and thanks in advance for the help :)
Well, I am sitting in the front row center balcony. Which I haven't done in this theatre. But I am sure it will be fine. If the front gallery seating at City Center was fine, I am sure this will be just as good.

In the original production Merman made her first entrance down aisle, so you may want to find out whether the latest Mama Rose is using the left or the right aisle.
Patti entered on the right at Encores!, I felt like such a tool because I was staring at the door to my left, waiting for her entrance when I suddenly heard "Sing out, Louise!" coming from my right. *blushes*

How is Row R in the center? I have no idea how far away from the stage that is...so if anyone can give me a clue that would be great...also are the seats spacious like the gershwin or are they smaller?
What happened to the orchestra seats? For not that much more (I believe there was a discount), it would've been nice to be that close. The mezz isn't bad though, not sure about balcony.

Bumping because I didn't want to start a new thread. I just got tickets for mezz row R, 112 and 111. Is the balcony gonna cut off some of my view? I don't really mind if it does, I mean, for 38 bucks, come on...
