The Walter Kerr mezzanine is stadium style seating, and the slope is intense.. I sat in Mezz Row A rightmost seat and I thought the view was fine, since you can see all the facial expressions despite obstruction of characters when they entered or stood far stage left. Skipping the first row mezz is probably a good idea. There were some guys behind me in row B even further to the right that kept saying that the view was not bad at all. I think those seats are also eligible. I was hoping I'd get lucky and be able to shift left but the mezz was packed. Definitely preferred house right to house left. Don't know about center rear mezzanine but I liked being closer.
And you're right - the deal is good for the entire remainder of the run, which is pretty sweet.

Thanks for that. I saw that Row F and back in the mezz is also $40 for most dates, but you're right about that steep mezzanine! I'd rather do side and more up close!
