Boeing Boeing ticket question#1

Posted: 6/24/08 at 12:45pm

Does anyone know how much space there is between row AA and the stage at the Longacre Theater? I have tried to find the box office phone number to call them but have had no luck. I am a bit claustrophobic and usually like to sit on the aisle but am having problems finding good aisle seats. I found some seats in Row AA at Boeing Boeing but they aren't on the aisle and I was wondering if the front row is as cramped as other aisles or if there is more room there. Does anyone know? Thanks!

The first row is pretty cramped. I'm not gonna lie. I don't know the exact space, though.

I sat on the aisle house left in Row AA and don't remember it being too cramped. I remember I had my briefcase on the floor in front of me and it wasn't jammed in between myself and the stage, there was plenty of room for it.

The front row is fine...tons of leg room. We had tickets in mid-May.

We sat exact center in the front row and were very happy with the seats. It's one of the lowest stages I've seen on Broadway, so the stage level was below mid chest level and is raked upwards, so viewing is fantastic. We are both 6 footers and knees did not quite hit the "wall" below the stage. Go for it. Be ready for a little spit every now and then. The show is played very downstage much of the time. Watch for Bradley Whitford's lack of concentration as he makes eye contact with audience.

I will append my comment to state that when I was with friends who sat front row of this theatre, it was prior to renovation so I could be mistaken for the status of it at Boeing Boeing. I do know that during Well, that it did feel as if my friend was mashed against the stage

The seating was completely redone during the renovation, so the discomfort you had during Well, and I had during Talk Rad!o has been taken care of.
