Come From Away Stage Height (guesses)

Wondering about the stage height for Come From Away at the Schoenfeld.

For those who have seen previous stagings, how high was the deck? From what I've heard, it's a very intimate and simple production, so I'd assume that there would be no need for tracks and other mechanics that would raise the deck.

And as for the Schoenfeld itself, I don't think I've sat real close, but I don't seem to recall a high stage.

Would you buy tickets in the second row?

There are no elaborate settings it an open turntable w simple Tables & chairs and as required props. Occ signage but easily visible. The back wall is done as slats which DO open as doors/hatches and occ scenes take place in that area and might be a bit of a stretch to see from the 2nd row.

OTH- you are close to a great Ceilidh style band. It is 100 full minutes ( a break would ruin the flow so GO to the washroom B4 the show and don't drink too much from the bar)

Thanks. That's a great help. I would imagine that the turntable adds some height to the deck and not really being a fan of Irish folk music, perhaps further back would be best for us.

1) it's more Folk/Rock.

2) the band is split. 1/2 in upstage l corner 1/2 in the R w one major exception- "Screech In".

Just to add my two cents... every show I've seen with a turntable deck has a significantly higher stage so I'd definitely advise to go further back. Can't speak for this production obviously but that is just my experience.

Yup. Decided on row K on the aisle.
