COME FROM AWAY Partial View Seats

Sorry to be that guy, but I searched and couldn't find an answer to my question.

I went to purchase a Come From Away ticket for my birthday. Front Mezz Row C on the side-aisle, against the wall ($79). Only when I got to the payment screen, a note said the seat is "Partial View." 

Does anyone have experience with similar seats. Do you miss a lot? Orchestra seats available are almost $200 or $300 and I can't afford that.

Thanks much for your help.

I sat in box seats that were labeled as partial view, and you really only miss 30 seconds of the show, and it's nothing too significant.

I sat in Row A all the way to the side and it was fine. Like two little bits happened in the corner I couldn't see. Nothing worth an extra $100 to sit over a few seats.

Also, as soon as you clicked the seat and the price was $79, that should have been your first hint.

I rushed the show not too long ago, and I sat on the extreme side (against the wall) of the orchestra section, and I believe that, at most, I missed one or two cast members for a few seconds here and there if they were standing off too far on that side of the stage.  But honestly, it's not bad at all; you're still going to enjoy the show a lot!  Enjoy, and happy early birthday!

Thanks so much for your help. By the time I went back to buy the ticket, it was gone and the next seat over is almost $200. Oh well. Maybe next time. Thanks so much for the birthday wishes.

Why not simply do the rush line?

I wish I could but I have to work and I'm sure there would be no tickets left by the time I got there. Thanks for the suggestion. I might give that a try on a weekend.

All you need to do is arrive early enough on one of your days off from work ... easy peasy.
