#1Mormon - how obstructed is obstructed?
Posted: 6/18/11 at 2:35amCan anyone help me please? I have been offered box seats (B 5 & 6) for The Book of Mormon at $155 each which are obstructed. Will I be able toi see much from these and are they worth the money? Also, do the box seats face the stage with steps up, like in some other Broadway theatres, or face the audience all on one level, ss they do in London? Any help greatly appreciated.

Posted: 6/18/11 at 11:33amWe sat in the right box in the seats closest to the mezzanine (I believe it was box C). People who sat in the first row had a great view. But my seat was in the back and I had to stand to see anything and still missed some of the action (and I am 5'7"). But maybe box B is better, who knows. For $69 it was well worth it, but for $155..... The box seats face the audience, so you have to turn your head to see anything. There are no steps inside, just a bunch of chairs.

Posted: 7/5/11 at 1:00pmWe sat in orchestra, left side seats B1&3 (aisle) and were fantastic. Seat 11 must just be on the end so would imagine it may be a bit on an angle, but I'd still be very happy there.

Posted: 7/5/11 at 1:01pm$155 is a stupid proce to pay for how horrible those seats are. blows my mind that someone would pay $50 . save your time and money, wait till you can actually be comfortable and see the show.

Posted: 7/5/11 at 1:38pmI sat in row J, aisle 1, which was had a partial view, and could see almost everything. The only inconvenience was went some of the cast went off to the right of the stage. I just leaned over to the right, and could see the side view. Most of the time the show takes place in the center of the stage, and even with partial view there should be a good view of the show. There is a chart of the Eugene O'Neill Theatre if you just google it under Eugene O'Neil seating chart, it should come up.

However, the higher one goes in the theater could pose a problem with partial views.
