I am visiting NY in a few weeks and want to catch Les Mis. On one of the nights I am looking at, there are a few front row seats available. I haven't been to the Imperial before. Is front row too close? How high is the stage? I appreciate any advice you could provide. Thanks!

I sat in the front row, side orchestra on the aisle, and didn't have any issues with the stage seeming overly high (I'm 6'0", if that matters). If it doesn't cost more, a few rows back might be good, but usually the front row is non-premium because it's *just* a bit too close, in which case I'd still rather that than to jump back 12 rows... but I didn't have a problem being that close at all.
