Thanks so much for the advice guys! I'll keep regularly checking over the next couple of months. I am going to be in New York between January 21 and February 4, ideal dates to see the show would be 23rd - 1st. Though I would prefer earlier incase of inclement weather. Glad to hear it's a slower time of year, also great for hotels! I'll definitely be keeping track of this thread.

Are you willing to spend $225 per part? Looking at your dates, there are 4 front orchestra seats available, the best of the lot being G 18 on 1/24 & 1/25. That's an awesome seat, so, if you want to secure a ticket now, I'd highly recommend that one.

Whoa I didnt' know Bway con dates are earlier next year. I'm guessing that's MLK weekend. From what I recall in the past, bway con attendees go to the convention during the day and then see a show in the evening.
I agree with ct2nyc those seats in row G are great seats! I sat in row F a month ago for $189/part (nowadays all the $189 tickets are priced at $225 after the show won all those Tony awards.)

Hey guys
Can anyone comment on ORCH R2? That’s my seat for today and tomorrow’s performance. I know the overhang starts at Q, so was curious as to how much that would obstruct my view for this show. I was eyeing seats forever and foolishly waited til after the Tony’s to buy. Have only a window of a few months to see this show, so just want to have the best experience possible
Thanks for any insight. Super excited for tonight!!

Thanks for pointing out the G18 Orch seat, looks like it would be a good view! I'm not against paying that price, only worry is my height. I'm super short (under 5ft) and my biggest issue is always not being able to see due to the person in front. Is there a decent slope in the orchestra, or would I be better off with dress circle / balcony seat?

Just ask for a cushion from the usher. They have a lot available.

I've sat in row S orchestra and didn't even notice the overhang. Enjoy the show! That's an awesome seat dead center.

I'm very short, as well, and I always worry about the same thing. Fortunately, as Wick3 mentioned, they have boosters readily available, and they really do help a lot. The slope in the dress circle isn't great, so you could run into the same issue there. Some seats in the balcony have a great view, but I would never recommend sitting there over the front orchestra. I've sat there, and I would choose G 18 in a heartbeat, especially knowing that I could use a seat cushion if necessary.

I happened to have sat in Row Q and Row H. I would definitely recommend Row G even if you are short (I am also very short). There is a slight slope in the orch which helps a bit and the seats have nice "windows." Though the last time I saw the show, the usher told me that the cushions are just for kids and there were far less available for use, so that is something to keep in mind. Not sure if this is a new rule or just a particular usher.
As for Row Q. You'll have a perfect view of the whole stage and the mezzanine does not impede the view of the stage at all. Have fun!

When I saw the show two weeks ago, I needed cushions for my two kids. I didn't ask an usher, I just got them myself and no one stopped me or questioned me (and I carried both large cushions back to my seat myself). The cushions I got were located in the aisle to the far right of the stage when you walk in from the rear - if you walk in the large aisle between H and J, turn left when you exit the seating area of the theater. You'll see a very short hallway and there's a shelf at the end. I didn't know I was supposed to ask an usher so I just helped myself! :) If you're a short adult who needs one and you're self-conscious about asking an usher, just get inside the theater as soon as the doors open and get one yourself.

Posted: 6/28/18 at 3:14pmSure so I asked a question on another post about Broadway Barks because appatently Sam, Poppy, Noma and Paul are appearing. I asked since Anthony isn’t if he is not going to be in the show the next day the 15 when I am going. (He appeared at Stars in the Alley so that’s what I asked). Someone commented and said that he is thinking about “being sick” that weekend. They also said that two of the four going are allergic to cats and are going to stay away from them but if they do brush away from them they might be out too.

Wow, that was fast! Well, it might not hurt to refresh in a bit in case someone put them in their cart but doesn't check out?
