Does anyone know if some of the seats for Mary Poppins during previews are going to be sold as premiums? If I recall correctly, premium seats weren't offered for Tarzan previews.

Have they even announced a theater for this show yet? I doubt seating arrangements won't be announced for a few months.

They announced the theatre quite a while ago. It's at the New Amsterdam.

Yes, there are at least 4 full rows of premium seating for every performance of Mary Poppins beginning with the first preview. The seats are all in the center, rows C,D,E, and F. Some dates have additional premium seating in rows G,H,J, and K as well. Hope this helps.

That being said, what is the seating like in the New Amsterdam in general? Are the Front Mezzanine seats any good?

I think the Front Mezzanine is ideal. Be warned that all the seats are very close together, however. Not much leg room here. That being said, the sight lines there are quite good. Other than up in the balcony, I've not sat in a bad seat. I haven't seen the London Mary Poppins, but based on what I've read, it sounds like the best place to sit is in the front of the mezzanine.

Will orchestra seats (not premium) be sold at a discount for previews? I got my Tarzan ticket for $75. I hope they do this for Mary Poppins as well.

No, preview prices will be the same as after opening prices. Unlike Tarzan, you'll be getting a much more polished product that will just need a few tweaks during previews.

Signle tickets go on sale in June, I don't know exactly when though. Prices are already available on disneyonbroadway.com in the groups section. There they have a chart with the comparison of group prices to single ticket prices.

Is there a bar or something in front of the front row Mezzanine that could be a problem for the view? I'm short so sometimes the front row Mezzanine doesn't really the best seat for me. Thanks!
