Being very indecisive and would love any feedback on Lyric theater seating.  Would you recommend Orch side (ex row H 25 & 27) OR Dress Circle (ex row  E 2 & 4).

I tend to prefer orchestra, but don't want to miss the effects if I am too far to side.  Thanks in advance for your help and feedback.  Traveling from out of state so trying to make the best choice!

Age old debate on here, but 10 times out of 10, I'd sit closer for Cursed Child. There is no partial side view in the orchestra, so while you won't have a direct central view in Orch H 25/27, you will see everything. It's an amazing view. Row E in the Dress Circle is just too far away from the stage for the money IMO. I've sat in Row D/C up there, and I would argue the front of the balcony is a better aerial view and value.

Thank you so much for your reply!! It helps to get feedback from someone who has been in the theatre.

I agree with VotePeron. Even off to the extreme side, you will have a full view of everything on stage and the house effects. The Lyric is just too deep. Especially for the prices they charge.

Have seen the show from H16 and from G18. You should be fine with the H seats, but I wouldn’t go any further than 25/27. (29/31 are getting pretty extreme angled… You wouldn’t MISS anything but you’d likely have some characters obscured, esp in scenes with lots happening at once and many actors on stage at the same time.) Enjoy!
