Yes really close in the orchestra is fun for certain things but obviously your view is limited. My daughter had front row and she is not short but missed the tap dancing feet...she could only see ankles and above. But she is a musician and enjoyed seeing her buds in the pit.
I prefer front Mezz for most shows....I was a little far to the side so they called it partial view but it was pretty great.
I also enjoyed Aaron a lot - and you could tell that it was his first time as the cast was really watching him and giving him subtle props for his performance. He was very confident in the part and was beaming at the curtain call. I figured something was up because there were no inserts in the playbill regarding anyone being out..but I could hear the cast rehearsing and rehearsing the tap number RIGHT before the show started. So when an announcement was made regarding the change in cast, I figure..ah ha, that's why the late rehearsal.
Gee a lot of us won yesterday matinee! (after not winning 10 times for me).
