I'm looking at tickets for Miscast 23 at the Hammerstein Ballroom in the $150 range and am wondering if anyone has experience of the seats in the 2nd Balcony that they mark as Obstructed or Partial View? I've been poring over the seating plan and 360 degree videos but can't quite tell how bad they would be. They are still full price, so can I assume that they're not that bad for an event like Miscast where most of the action would be centre stage?

My experience with Miscast is it seems hard for them to gauge exactly what could be missed in the second balcony because of all those supports for the third balcony above. I've sat there before and if you want to see the whole stage, that's going to be a problem, but some leaning should get you to see the performances (if not the performances and all the people waiting on the sides at the same time). Those center section aisle seats have the poles basically right in the line of sight though, just a heads up
