How tall is the stage? I'm a short guy. Thanks in advance.

Front row of any show is a tad to close.

I am only 5'1' and sat in front row for Disgraced. I loved the seat, the view was great! I didn't feel that anything was obstructed.

I always prefer to sit in the front row whenever possible. I was at Disgraced on Saturday night and I was in the 4th row, and I was thinking the front row looked like it was set really low relative to the stage and that the view would be poor, but I didn't actually sit there so I guess that is not true, based upon what several others have said.

"What's better? Front row of Mezz or Orch. Thanks again!!"

What's better? It's really individual preference and also depends on the show and how it's staged. For me, I like to get as close as possible assuming it's not a high stage that would impede my view. I sat front row for Waiting for Godot last season and watching two masters work up close was a truly memorable experience. Others obviously, may prefer sitting further back to enable them to take in more of the stage at once.

I was in the front row on Friday night. They were great seats. I've sat front row for a handful of performances and this stage is lower than most. I prepared myself for much worse.

I prefer front row mezzanine as I sat there for Scottsboro boys and it was perfect

This is good news, since the Audience Rewards pre-sale had them at regular price. I just snagged mine and I can't wait to see the great Chita Rivera up close this June!

luvcaroline-What seats did you get? I got front row center mezz. Can't wait!! I saw Chita in the original Chicago, Kiss of the Spider Woman, and A Dancer's Life. She is truly one of the greats.

Do you think they'll be adding Row AA of the Orchestra? Or, will the stage be built out?

When I purchased row A, it did say it was the second row. But the interactive seating chart shows it as the first row. I would think at this point, they know what the set-up will be.

Hmmm.

I would hope so. Though, I know, in certain instances, they may *add* a row or two when the box office "officially opens".

Good point. Well we should know on February 1st when the box office opens. Whether it's first or second row, I will still be happy, especially because I have an aisle seat.

I got Row A 101 and 102, center orch on the aisle. The interactive seating chart showed these were front row. WSStory, my only opportunity to see her was in the original Chicago. Can't wait to see her again!

THE VISIT's Twitter confirmed that Row A is indeed the second row. I am cool with that because I'm on the aisle and will receive the bonus points.

Just some things to ponder. Disgraced show deck is only 3/4 plywood . The Visit may have a taller show deck also there is talk of opening the orchestra pit .
