The general on sale went live. 

Pretty much exactly what it was for the “presale” - Orchestra starting at $176, Mezz at $135, Balcony at $79 (and there are VERY few seats at that price).

are they selling obstructed left/right seats in the mezzanine?  or maybe that's for rush/lottery.

If we see it on the first night of previews (Saturday, April 12), any suggestions for whether we should sit in the center mezzanine or the rear orchestra to the side? Would the balcony be too far away for a musical like this one?

I sat in the rear side orchestra for Swept Away and thought it was a pretty good seat.  It’s nice and high up.  Dead outlaw is such a small musical, I’d recommend the orchestra rather than the balcony.

I’m leaning towards rear side orchestra or center mezzanine. The staging could be different on Broadway than the off-Broadway version, but some shows benefit from being near the center and others don’t matter.

I have never sat in the Longacre mezzanine so can’t speak to that.

IIRC, a fair bit of the action takes place stage right.

I really hope the critics have a more discerning view of this musical when it comes to Broadway. I personally thought it was mostly a waste of space downtown.

The critics (and I) overwhelmingly loved this show off-Broadway. So, you’re hoping critics dislike it more on Broadway? Why?

I truly don’t understand the raves this musical has gotten.  I kept waiting for the action to start, but nothing ever happened.

To be fair, it's not exactly an action packed show....

And I adored it and thought it was the best show I saw last year. I thought it was a unique, charming and fascinating presentation of an unbelievable true story, with terrific, catchy, humorous, deadpan, original Yakbek songs and an amazingly talented cast. I wasn’t bored for a second. It will be interesting to see if critical feedback changes in the move to Broadway.

Best new work I have seen on or off Broadway this season. The performance flew by and felt truly original.   I can't wait for the transfer!
