I am purchasing tickets to Aladdin for September. My girlfriend really wants to see this show, but she is 5 foot 2. I am deciding between which seats to choose. Mezzanine Row LL or MM or Balcony Row B. I am worried she won't be able to see much from the middle of the Mezzanine. Are the Balcony seats good in the New Amsterdam? Or would it be better to go with the Mezzanine? THANKS

Do Mezz- its on a slope downward so it should be fine.

I sat in mid-mezz when the Lion King was at the Amsterdam and I remember the view being perfect! The Amsterdam is a large space so you can see just about everything onstage.

I haven't been in the front of the balcony, only the back, but it's VERY high and VERY far away from the stage. I wouldn't ever buy tickets in the balcony of that theater again...

I sat in the front row of the balcony a few years ago for this show. My mom loved the view. I wasn't as enamored with the view as she was but I did like the fact that you could see everything. Still, if I could have chosen closer seats, I would have. The balcony is also quite high and steep, so if heights make you nervous, I wouldn't recommend it.
