Haven't been there since previews of Avenue Q, can't remember how high the stage is and am eyeing some tickets up front for Oleanna; anybody know?

Having won the lottery for Q a couple of times, the stage is not too high at all...in the front row, I did have to look up, but not neck-crickingly badly (yeah, call the grammar police...)so I would think that a row or two behind would be just fine...

I sat front row at Oleanna on Wednesday and thought that the view was perfect. Go for it. :)

So I'm assuming the front row for Oleanna isn't student rush or lottery like it was with Q?

I doubt it. I got my ticket in advance and there were several elderly people in the other front row seats. So I doubt that the seats are up for student rush.
