Help with South Pacific and Lincoln Center seating#1

Posted: 8/13/08 at 10:58am

I've waited too late to get tickets through Telecharge for the weekend I'm going to be in NYC. There was one available for Thursday, the 9th, but I already have a ticket for Equus. So, looks like I"ll have to go through a broker. What are the views like from top row of loge or far right side orchestra. Obstructed? Right side too angled? Thanks for your help before I invest in this high priced ticket.

Most folks have said that the far right or left orch seats are fine....the seats are angled so you don't have to turn your head to see the show.

I was dead center in the 2nd row of the loge and was very happy with the view. The best thing to not about the loge is that it is raked very well and you wouldn't be trying to peer around the tall guy in front of you.

BTW: totally worth every penny no matter how much you pay!

I sat in the last row of the orchestra ALL the way on the right, and it was a good seat. The only problem is you can't really see the hill and the palm tree upstage, but nothing important happens there (just some entrances and exits).

I got very good orchestra seats for a reasonable price through Broadway.com
