I’m heading to see company and have decided to purchase a really nice ticket as I’ve never seen Patti live. Does anyone know what the blocking is like for Patti during Ladies Who Lunch and in general? Is she positioned to one side of the stage or all over?

Also, just generally, are the interior aisle seats on the left/right orchestra roughly equivalent or is one side better than the other in this theater?

House right, not stage right. During the song, she swings the chair around to face center, mostly, but, when she's talking to Bobbie, she's facing house right.

That picture would seem to put her more towards stage right for the song.  Seeing the show in January.

The chair might be a little off center on the stage right side, but she faces house right for most of the scene, which is lengthy. If someone really wants to see the most Patti they can in the "Ladies Who Lunch" bar scene, they'll sit house right.

Her Joanne fades into the background for much of the show (not a complaint) and her big moments are quite literally front and center. There is no bad seat for Ladies Who Lunch- she doesnt leave her seat front and center the entire song (yes a complaint- i wanted her to get up and emote a bit). But if you're going to see Patti do Patti, you can really sit anywhere.

This is 100% correct. I've sat on both sides, and you will miss quite a bit of Patti on house left.

I thought it was very strange that she sat during the entire number meanwhile belting her face off telling everyone to rise!!  I wish she had stood front and center during this number.

On the topic of getting tickets to see Patti, does anyone know if she will have any concert arrangements in February?
