For anyone who's sat in the obstructed view seats for TBOM, is the view still decent or would I miss a lot of the action?

Yes, but sometimes people have a third deeper layer thats the same as the first. Like pie. Dr. Horrible

I sat in one of the boxes (the one closest to the mezzanine) and the first row was fine but my seat was in the second row and I ended up standing the whole time (I could not see anything sitting down) and still missed some of the action. But I enjoyed it anyway.

The fact they sell those seats, even as partial view, should be considered an act of fraud.

Yeah, and they cost $69, which is the what I paid for the 2nd row in the mezzanine a few days later. But the show was sold out so we were grateful even for those.

Especially since the view from standing room is so great. If you can and don't mind standing, you're better off doing that.

Are the orchestra seats way to side (especially row C) super-duper obstructed like for Fela!?

Super obstructed from far-side seats, first few rows. Anything happening upstage (and lots happens upstage) might as well be radio. It still sounds funny - but better to sit back and see it all.

ugh. this is so frustrating. they should sell those seats for no more than $10. it sucks to pay money to stare at a wall.

I saw an obstructed view. It wasn't that big a deal, it just meant I couldn't see the upper left part of the stage. There was only one bit of business that happened up there that I couldn't see, otherwise no problem.

There is a single obstructed view at the very back next to the sound guy.  The obstruction is the edge of the booth ... So they give you about 10 cushion busters which lifts you into a good view. It is ridiculous but quite cheap.  It ends up being the exact view as standing room but you get to sit.  I loved it.

I sat in row C orchestra, last seat on the aisle.  I felt I missed about 15-20% of the action.  It wasn't that bad but should not be charged as a full price seat.

I sat in the very last lotto seat in the front row once -- I'm not sure if they tell you in advance that they're limited view -- but it was fine. I'd seen the show many times before, but I don't think you miss anything essential from there.
