Has anyone sat in the side orchestra row V seats 9 and 11? I purchased these without knowing that they are partial view seats, therefore I'm concerned as to how well my daughter and I will be able to see the play. I would really appreciate all input and would certainly like to see a picture from those seats if anyone has one. Thanks

I sat in V3. You'll be fine the very top of the stage is cut off but you won't miss anything major.

Thank you. And if anybody else has sat in the left side orchestra row V seats 9 & 11, please give me your thoughts.

Just sat in row V, I forget our seat numbers. As said, the stage is fine but the upper portion of the set is cut off and the cast is up there a fair amount. You're still there and it's obviously worth it but know that going in so you aren't disappointed.

The site is all user-generated so I can't personally vouch for the accuracy, but it's something. There are also other views from nearby seats if you want to explore the site further.
Personally, the problem I would have with Row V is not the overhang. Rather, the rake of the orchestra levels off back there. So if you happen to have a tall person sitting in front of you, your view will be compromised. In the middle orchestra, on the other hand, there is stadium-style seating and no problem seeing over someone's head.
