Hey guys! I'm going to New York in a few weeks all the way from Brazil and was hoping you could help me out with a few things.
First of all, I heard that the legroom at the Eugene O'Neil is kinda bad and that worries me quite a lot since I'm about 6' 6'. Which seats would have the most legroom? I thought the first row of the mez could be better but I heard some people saying it's acutally worse. Also, how much would I miss by sitting farther to sides of the orchestra (something like F 14).
The second thing is which show is better, Dear Evan Hansen or A Bronx Tale? I already quite a few tickets and am planning in buying a few more, so I won't have the money to see both DEH and ABT and must choose.
Thanks!

I can't imagine a better show opening this season than DEAR EVAN HANSEN. If you can get tickets to that, I'd say to definitely do it.

I will second Dear Evan Hansen, by far the best show probably this season imo. A very powerful night for sure!

Dear Evan Hansen, without question. Probably the best show of the season.

I guess that's it, I'll try to purchase my DEH tickets tomorrow night. Thanks for the help!
Can anyone help with the seating question tho?

Seat 14 is only 7 seats from the aisle and sight lines should be perfect. (One side has even numbered sears, the other has odd...with the center being numbered 100s.)
That being said, at you height, there aren't a lot of comfy options but an aisle seat, so you can utilize the aisle.
Have a great visit!

I've sat in the front row of the mezz at the O'Neill as well as the last, and the front was much more comfortable -- though I'm a foot and a half shorter than you, so I'm not sure if it would make much of a difference for you.
