Has anyone seen the show in these seats - how bad (or good) are they ?? how much do you really miss ?? The ones I would be able to get are ROW W, Orchestra (or somewhere in the back on the bottom). Thanks in advance for your help (sorry to have changed this message including the row information after the first few posts) !!

I've sat in them. They're not bad at all. I was in the "STAIR" seats, so the staircase blocks part of the stage, but it's not a big deal. The guys pretty much stay front and center. I was in Row C on the right.

we sat in... I want to say it was Row A, seats 5 and 7 (first row, audience left, third and fourth seats in from the aisle.) when we saw the show. And those partial view seats were completely fine. Had to lean over to see the screen that's stage right, but other than that it was perfectly fine.

The seat next to us, though, the last seat on that row, I would not sit in- the woman sitting there seemed to be really obstructed in her viewing.

We were in the orchestra (first floor) - row 2 - seats near the 'STAIRCASE', but not all the way to the wall on the right hand side.

I felt our seats were the best in the house, because there's loads of activity around the staircase and you can observe the actors 'up close and personal'!

The only thing that I had to strain a bit to see was the cartoon board in the center of the stage.

Make sure they give you a discount on the restricted view seats - I was able to get a really good discount on our restricted view seats after initially being told there was no discount.

I just hope I can get the same great seats, and the same good deal when I'm back in New York in a few weeks!

The seats blocked by the stairs are definitly annoying... not going to lie. If you haven't seen the show they are great because they are cheap and you are right in the action. Row W seats are fine and only obstuct part of the screens because the mezz overhangs. If it is your first time seeing it, go for row W before the seats further up. If you've seen it more than once with is fine. The best seats I ever had were in the front mezz though!

Yeah? I've been hearing a lot how good the front mezz is for J-Boys. Do they give any front mezz to rushers?
