King & I -first two rows? Too close?

I'm going to see the king and I solely to see Marin so id love to be close. The discount includes first two rows orchestra in the non center sections. How are these seats? Are they partial view or ok? Thanks

The first time I saw it, I was in the first row way to the far side, which was a totally fine view. I think you should be fine.

The third row is the best view I've ever had at Beaumont. The second row seems to be fine as well.

Naw, you'll be in heaven! Such a dynamic staging, which takes full advantage of the deep thrust stage.

Saw it today, sat first row of the side orchestra, seats 501 and 502. Amazing view. We felt like we were in the show.

I sat in the third or fourth row center for her, and it was great, especially when they're both down center, on the floor, at the end of the first act.

You miss some of the overall spectacle, which is beautiful, but you get the boat coming right at you, which is fun.

When I saw it again a few weeks ago, I was in the 6th row on the side, and remember thinking how I would hate to be in the first few rows in the center section for the beginning of the show, since I can't imagine you'd see anything at all.

If you want close, sit in the first couple of rows of the side orchestra and you won't need theater glasses to see all the facial expressions. I sat in the second row left side on the aisle and when the ballet started Kelli sat right next to me on a little stool in the aisle. I admit that I was stealing glances up at her.

I guess she wasn't feeling very friendly because she didn't turn to me and start chatting.

Both times I saw it, I was in the front row center. Perfect seats. The only time it was too close is at the beginning when the ship comes out. That is only for a few minutes. Nothing to complain about.

Not to be confused with Dave19.

Nor should she gave "turned to you and started chatting." She is a working professional and was in the middle of the show, reacting to what was going around her on stage and not to the audience members around her that felt the need to chat with her during the show...

Sorry, just a rant. These people are working hard to put on a top-notch performance for the audience's enjoyment and they shouldn't feel the need to make one audience member's show "more special" by completely breaking the fourth wall for a chat when they're supposed to be a part of a scene in the world of a show.

I saw front row orchestra on the side for Kelli's last performance. At first I was hesitant about the view but when the show started, they perform legit right in front of you, you felt like you were part of the show. One of the best theatre experiences hands down!

I sat front row on the side with my LincTix. GREAT view. Only thing I missed were some moments when they were on the boat at the beginning

I'll go out on a limb and say OlBluesEyes was kidding.

Yes, if Kelli had actually turned to me and said something, I would have forgotten my name.
