I can't remember how high the back wall of the orchestra section is at the Schoenfeld, but I don't think it's as bad as other theaters (Lunt-Fontanne, New Amsterdam). It's not high at all. I'm 5'1" and I can stand back there comfortably.
The rush seats are fine, too. It's mostly side orchestra, but it depends on what they have left. The best I've gotten is fourth row dead center.

The choice may have been mistaken,
The choosing was not...
