Seeking Chicago/Ambassador Theatre Seating Advice#1

Posted: 6/12/15 at 2:38am

Hi everyone,

 I am planning a trip to see Chicago and I'm in need of some advice regarding the front row of the front mezzanine at the Ambassador:

 Would the railing at the front of the mezzanine block the view for someone who is about 5’5”? 

What is the leg room like in the front row mezzanine, especially for someone over 6 feel tall? From personal experience I know this varies from theater to theater.  Having never been to the Ambassador, I'm hoping someone can offer their personal experience.  

 This trip will be a birthday present for one of the people in our group, and I’m hoping to figure out these little details now so the whole day goes very smoothly.  Thank you in advance for your help!

Haven't been to the ambassador in years but generally speaking leg room at most Broadway theaters is not ample. You might try to get an aisle seat for your companion.
