How are the box seats at the Shubert for Spamalot. I know they're waaay off to the side in the mezz or the orchestra or something, and I belived they're said to be partial view but how much is "partial" Do you actually miss anything? Has anyone sat there before?

Help much appreciated!!

I would be happy to have any seat for Spamalot. I had standing room so don't know how any seats would be.

Well I don't know how helpful this is but I'll just say it anyway....

I had left box seats to gyspy. From what I understand, it really depends on the row of the box you're in. If I remember correctly, I was in the second row of the left box. Yes there are times you must strain yourself to see but they are very, very little. To be more specific, I remember the seen where Herbie leaves Rose and Louise is getting ready to go on and strip for the first time. Well that seen was ALL the way to the left (as you face the stage) and what I could not see at the time was when Rose goes to grab the white gloves to give to Louise. Hmmm, don't know how helpful that was. Anyway, like I said, it really depends on the row you're in, of the box.

Also, you can see the little things that go on right on the side of the stage. Funny thing: I remember seeing Bernadette Peters sipping on a glass of water that someone brought to her right before the "Mr. Goldstone" number, just before she enters the stage holding Louise's cake and yelling out, "SURPRISE!"

I believe the tickets are for box B or row B...the tickets aren't mine, but I said I'd try and find out how the view is. Thanks for the help Bern! Anyone else???
