If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

Well, I know you read my review, but...
I usually like mezzanine but I had a lot of trouble seeing from Row B; I'm not short either, I'm 5'8" and adamgreer also said he had trouble seeing from Row A of the mezzanine.
The seats really affected my experience.

Posted: 5/25/09 at 12:38amWas it so bad that it would completely ruin my experience at my first and probably only chance of seeing the show? I'm really expecting to like the performances, so I hope the seats I bought won't ruin the full experience. Do you think they will?

I honestly can't say.
If I hadn't seen the show already from different seats would I had loved these seats? Possibly.
If you want, see if telecharge has difference seats for your performance being telecharge is usually very nice about switching seats. If not, just go in with an open mind.

Posted: 5/25/09 at 12:54amUnfortunately the discount code I used has expired since I bought my tickets. I think I will still enjoy the show anyway, having not experienced it from the Orchestra. I'm not too worried. Thanks

Posted: 5/25/09 at 6:54amYou will enjoy the show very much from there. Wishing, a lot was probably lost because you were seeing it a second time and new what to expect. That happens in most shows...not just this one. The seats in row B of the mezz are excellent.

Posted: 5/25/09 at 6:32pmI had seen the show four times in its other theatres before seeing it in the Booth, but my first time in the Booth WAS in center mezzanine row B. I absolutely loved it from these seats. You're definitely not "right up in the action," because you're not ridiculously close, but overall I felt the impact of the show was still amazing. Furthermore, the set design and lighting affects REALLY come through when seen from this perspective. I loved it from these seats.

Posted: 5/25/09 at 10:11pmbjh2114, I see most shows numerous times. I also missed a lot with 'next to normal' the first time being I was so overcome with emotion so I really wanted to see this again. I still loved the show, and I wasn't tired of it... I just didn't like the seat.

I watched it from row A in the mezz -- accept for an OCCASIONAL need to lean forward, I loved the seat.
And this comes from a seat snob....I truly love the orchestra, particularly the first 10 rows, althought I would never pay "premium" seating.

Posted: 5/26/09 at 9:22amI am so glad you started this thread! I literally JUST purchased tickets for Wednesday, June 3. My seats are center, left orchestra, Row N (15 rows back). The seat numbers are 117 and 119. How will my viewing experience be? The Booth Theatre looks pretty tiny, so I imagine they will be relatively good, no?

Well, I've experienced both but you know where I stand with that lol.
cheno fan, I *think* you might miss the third level of the set which only features Aaron for certain scenes.

Posted: 6/11/09 at 10:40pmThere are so many opinions in here. It really doesn't matter at this point as you have already bought the seats, anyway.

Posted: 6/11/09 at 10:42pmYou've posted questions about N2N seats repeatedly. And have gotten multiple responses. What is the problem?
