Obstructed view from sides at Hamilton/Richard Rodgers

This question has come up a couple of times and I bought tickets on the side also, so I've been interested. Here's something from a previous thread that I found and reposted for someone else:

I sat in Row G on the far left aisle last week. I couldn't see people when they were on the stairway on the left side of the stage. It was only a couple of times that I couldn't see someone doing/singing something significant. There were also times when the character who was the focus of the scene was blocked by dancers, but everyone is moving around a lot so those moments were brief. Personally, it was well worth it to be that close to the stage and able to see Leslie Odom's subtle performance and the tears on Philippa Soo's face at the end. The only other way I'll ever be that close again is if I win the lotto because I can't afford premium seats. On the other hand, the far side seats don't offer a good view of the staging, lighting, and choreography, which you can see very well from rear orchestra. I suspect the best non-premium seats are front mezz, but I haven't sat there (yet).

Glad I could help! My tickets are for May 2016, so I will look to see how you like the seats. And enjoy the show!
