The booth looks fairly intimate but I'm still a little worried about getting a seat in row H mezz. Thoughts?

Broadway world recently posted an article with all the updated listings of rush policies and such. I read on Next to Normals that "$36.50 tickets are available on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. What is up with that?

Mezz row H is fine if you want the price. If you're willing to shell out a little more, it's always worth it.

Go with Row M center. Normally, I'd take the Row G on the right, but this is a smaller theater, so Row M shouldn't be a bad view. I have never been in the Booth, but I have sat in worse seats at theaters and have had a good view of facial expressions/stage.

Also, if it is between Row M and O, go with M since it is closer than O, yet also a center seat.

The tix I've been able to find have been Orchestra M to the side and Row A seat 3. I'm wondering if A would cut off any of the stage. I'm assuming it would....

Whether you're talking about A in the orchestra or in the mezz, you'll be fine. You can see the whole stage from both.

You'd have to look UP to see the 3rd level...but not all that much happens there.

I like close for non dance shows. Personal preference.

CS....the only thing left is weekends. They must be selling really well on weekends and feel they can get the non discounted price at that time. They are dark on Wedsnesdays.

Their perogative. It's all about the $$$. The actors don't know (or care, really). Doesnt change their pay.

Just got back from NY and saw N2N from the last row, center of the theater. The seats were just fine [especially for the price]. The show was even more brilliant than I could have imagined. Alice seemed completely wiped out at the end. How she can do that day after day is beyond me. I hope they are able to film this and show it on PBS. I want a dvd of the stage version. A few years from now I'd love to see what some clever director could do for a film version.

i need some insite on which seats would be better for N2N bb 103 104 or c 110 112. Not sure if bb is too close to the stage and c would be better..any thoughts

I sat in BB and loved it. Being so close makes it even more intense.

I assume orchestra row E is pretty good?

If you sit that close though,(first 6 rows in orch or so) do you have to look up a lot? And miss some of "i'm alive"?

The Booth is a small enough house that even when you are far back in the mezz, you can still see everyone very well, the house isn't that deep. The only issue is that you can't see gabe from the back of the orch for 'I'm Alive' when he is on the top tier

I have tickets for Sept. 19th row bb 112. I look forward to drooling over Aaron Tveit from up close.
