Box seats for MJ

I'm hoping to see MJ again at some point this summer and considering getting box seats. Are the box seats for that theatre any good, if I could get a seat on the ledge rather than on the outer side? If so, is there a particular side (left vs. right) that would be better, and would the furthest box from the stage be better than the closer one? I sat in the furthest box seat for Six (box C left, furthest box back, furthest seat back beside the ledge) and it was a great view (for only $30 - lottery seat), but also Six is played completely downstage/centre stage, so the only thing I couldn't see was the drummer, which was not a problem. For MJ, is enough of the show played upstage/to the far corners that the boxes would offer obstructed views? Thanks everyone for your help!

As a rule of thumb, unless I absolutely have no choice and desperately want to see the show, I never do box seats. They look exclusive but are always partial view, no matter the theater.

As close to the center as you can get, no matter how high, should always be the goal imho. Box seats are always the furtherest to the sides.

Also, I haven't done this since I was a kid, but an older couple was sitting next to me at Mr. Saturday Night. We were very high in the mezzanine; they had binoculars. This is a cool, fun tool to use in the theater that I surprisingly don't see a lot anymore. Consider it. I def am now. lol

Thank you for these great tips ! When you say "as close to the center as you can get" I'm assuming you mean whether it's orchestra, mezzanine, loge or balcony ? It doesn't matter ?
