Cursed child part 2 before 1?

Not worth it considering Part II resolves some BIG cliffhangers set up by Part I.
 

Nope

If you have read the play, then yes that's fine. But if you haven't, then I agree with others saying it's not a good idea.

How about a slightly different question.  I'm tempted to go but I find the tickets very expensive.  I am thinking of seeing one part from a great seat and one part from a less expensive seat in back.

Which part should I see from up close?

I vote for Part Two. I think it's the more intimate part, and there are large-scale effects in Part One that are best seen from the dress circle and balcony."

I agree with this. I've seen both parts from the Dress Circle (and will see them from the balcony in October  but I've only seen part 2 from the orchestra and it's the part I'd prefer to see from the closer/better seats. 

(Insert Clever Name) said: "Not gonna say why, but for part two of you are splurging, opt for an aisle seat, no matter how far back. It’s totally worth it if you are already willing to spend money , (A seat on the center aisle, seats 1 or 2 only in the orch)"

I understand why you're suggesting this, but the thing you're talking about lasts only about 30 seconds. It's hardly a good reason to look for an aisle seat specifically, and end up too far from the stage. For the bulk of Part Two, I think it's much more important to be in the front orchestra, row J or closer, no matter how far off the aisle.

Thank you so much, everyone!  I've taken your advice and bought a cheaper Part 1 ticket, now hunting for a great Part 2 ticket.  I think they may end up being several weeks apart but I can live with that.
