Book of Mormon Seating Question

Trying to buy tickets in advanced, and for the life of me, can't remember the inside of the Eugene O'Neill Theater. My options are either Row C right mezzanine Seats 11-13, or Row A right mezzanine, Seats 20-22 which is to the very far right. Or should I go for the orchestra, where most of the seats I find are in row P or so. Opinions? Which is better?

Go for C in the Mezz. I sat in Mezz row J seats 12-14 so similarly to the side, and thought they were great. Too far back in the orch and you won't be able to see all of the lovely stain glass proscenium.

I didn't want to start a whole new thread for any further seating needs, so I figured I'd continue on my own thread.

I stuck with Row C in the mezz. Thanks, Cockeyed.

Now, I also bought tickets for The Importance of Being Earnest through HipTix and got seats in Row E in the mezzanine, to the far right, and tickets for The People In The Picture in row KK seats 106-108. I've been to Studio 54 enough to know that there will always be closer seats to move up to, but I've never been to the American Airlines. How is the Row E there?

Finally, I also have one slot open in my week-long theater-going trip, and I'm debating between Good People and The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore. Any opinions on which one I should see? Or maybe something else altogether? I'm already going to Arcadia, Priscilla, Catch Me If You Can, Company, Sister Act, People In The Picture and Earnest. Any advice would be appreciated :)

Go see Good People, by all means. It's a fine new piece of American drama and Frances McDormand is really good. I enjoyed it very much.

Based on the reviews and my love of Frances McDormand, checking out Good People next Thursday.

And Book of Mormon next Friday...planning on waiting until I'm in the city next Thursday to get my tickets, but will check online daily in case it looks like we'll be squeezed out.
