Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Seating/Pricing Thread — Page 83

AmeliaBedelia said: "Hi, everyone! I'm trying to decide between 3 different seat locations. Has anybody sat in or near any of these seats and if so do you have any pros and cons for each?

Balcony Row D, Seat 24 (all the way to the side): I've read that this seat has a railing obstructing the view, especially for shorter audience members.How bad is this obstruction? I'm 5'3" so I'massuming the railing will really obstruct my view.

Orchestra Y, Seat 37 (also all the way off to the side): This one seemed great until I saw on A View From My Seat that there appears to be a large support column in row X of the orchestra.around seat 3. Does anyone know if this would block my view? I think maybe being just one row behind and all the way on the other side of the row, it might just be in my peripheral vision but I really am worried I'll be looking at a column the whole time. Are there any other disadvantages to sitting in this area?

Balcony H, seat 17 (4th seat in from the side): The photos I've seen from this area look much better than I thought they would since this is about as far away from the stage as anyone can sit. Right now, this is still my last choice though. Only keeping it in mind in case the other two seats really are truly awful.

Any opinions on which of these seats would be best?"

I'd say Y 37. The support poles in the rear orchestra will not obstruct your view at all. Of the 3, it definitely has the closest view of the stage. Other pros are that it's an aisle seat, and the rows in the rear orchestra are tiered, which is good for a shorter person. The main con is that the dress circle overhang will obstruct some of the large-scale effects, but I don't think it will affect your enjoyment of the show. Honestly, though, between the 2 balcony seats, I would choose row H over row D, simply because of the railing. You'll have to use a booster in row D, and, even with it, there's no guarantee that you won't have problems anyway, because I've heard that the people in row C tend to lean forward. In row H, the railing isn't an issue, and, if need be, you can sit forward in your seat as far as you want without bothering anyone behind you, since it's the last row. I sat in row H center, and I loved it. The main pro for the balcony seats is that you'd have a spectacular view of the effects that are obstructed in orchestra row Y.

Some awesome front orchestra seats available on Ticketmaster for next Wednesday, 7/11. Orchestra A 3, J 23, & J 24, $130 per part.

Where did you see that because I didn't and I looked right after you posted it.

That's an excellent price for orchestra Row K! The view should be great from there. I sat in M20, and it was awesome.

Not sure how the view will be, but can’t complain too much for the price. I’m going to splurge on other shows, and maybe catch Cursed Child from a better seat in Melbourne as well when it arrives."

The view is excellent! Great score!

Thanks, I picked up a ticket for the 9th/10th!

It seems like they got rid of the $20/$40 tickets option."

I was gonna say no they didn't, we all know they're olden back tickets at this point, but went to check and yep, literally no 20/40 option and nothing less than 80 per part...only thing cheaper is the lottery. Capitalism at it's finest yo :P

I have 4 front of the house premium tickets to Harry Potter and the Cursed Child parts one and two on Thursday July 26th and Friday July 27th. They are in the front section of the left orchestra in the seventh row which is row F. They are seats 1, 3, 5 and 7. Seat 1 is on the center aisle. I had to change my trip to go another date. I paid Ticketmaster $2511 for the four of them. Email me an offer at mdwmd@bellsouth.net or reply or this post or PM me please! The box office at the Lyric theater and Ticketmaster say they are not refundable. I don’t want them to go unused or lose all of the 2500$. Make me an offer. The mobile tickets will be available for me to email them to you on July 23rd. Thanks.

Does anyone know the cancellation line policy or can point me to the right thread?

And where can i get the tickets?
