My seat last night Orchestra F seat 109 provided an almost perfect view in my opinion. I found Lauren especially often looked directly at me. The view of the stage was nice too, no obstruction. Great views of the revolving sets as they turned!

Comfort on the other hand wasn’t the greatest. I think going for that aisle seat was a smart move, the show is almost 3 hours long! I’m fairly short, about 5 foot 4 inches and after close to 90 minutes in the first half my knees had enough. Luckily, the show was sold out, except for the 3 seats towards the centre in my row F, so I was able to move down at intermission and ‘woman-spread’ to my hearts content.

i will provide pics from the view from my seat and of the legroom in a couple of days when I get home. They are on my real camera. I’m old school.

So a friend of mine got a group of us tickets for $35. It'll be my second time seeing after getting third row center orchestra seat the first time around so I don't mind sitting in Row E 107-110 and F 110-111, but for those who have seen the show from that view, what did you think of it? 

I'm so happy to read TorontoBroadwayFan's report that Orchestra F seat 109 was an almost perfect view for them.

I saw the show back in April from the last row of the loge, and I'd like to see it again with Laura Benanti, but in a closer seat. For those more familiar with the orchestra views, given the choices of C 101 or 501, and H 101 or 501, which would you choose?

I would go with C 101. I saw it from C 104 and it was perfect!

I'd go with H101. C is probably a little too close. The way the set is positioned and where a lot of the action takes place makes me recommend the left side more. I sat Row M 200s in July and I felt like the left side had slightly more directed staging. Both sides are good though, hope this helps!

I won the Halloween Fan Appreciation day lottery and I was wondering if anyone might have any idea where my seats my be? Has anyone here won the lottery?

Which choice would be better--Row M, seats 312-313 (on the aisle) or Row D, seats 203-204 (a 2 seat row--what's up with that?)?

Thanks for opinions!

I personally love sitting closer because I'm short - there may be blocking issues with people but they're pretty brief. You may even be able to feel the breeze as the turntable is spinning if sitting in C101. It's also closer to Higgins' study and Eliza's exit path. Saw Benanti's first show in C103... it was great to see her so close!

Below are some pictures of the sections I've sat to give you some perspective (sorry if they're so large).

I would go with row D, I personally prefer to be closer to the stage.

 

BenElliott, from previous reports, lottery seats tend to be in the loge, the Halloween lottery is different though, it’s being labeled Fan Appretiation Day, so most of the seats will be lottery... hard to say where they will be then... congrats on winning!

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. I went with C 101.

I believe the audience will be full of lottery winners. When I went to the Dear Evan Hansen Fan Day performance, tickets were distributed at random. I ended up in the sixth row of the orchestra, but the people in front of me in the line ended up in the mezz. So, it very well could be that method again, but I'm not sure.
