Studio 54 seating for Kiss Me Kate

I'd like to see Kiss Me Kate during previews next year. It will be my first time seeing a show at Studio 54.

Generally speaking, how is the mezz/rear mezz at Studio 54? It looks like a small, intimate theater, but I'm wondering what other's experiences have been.

Thank you for the warning! Is the front mezz any better? If not, I may just spring for an orchestra seat.

I sat rear mezz for both She Loves Me and Lifespan of a Fact and can confirm that there's not much legroom. The view itself is surprisingly good though, as it's a little steep but still feels close and not too much like you're looking directly down on top of people.

Is it insensitive for me to buy it in case person in a wheelchair needs companion next to them? Also, Ive never sat this far up and to the side at Studio 54. Would this be partial view?"

Not only is it "insensitive", --- you aren't allowed to buy them (unless you plan on renting a wheelchair for you or your companion to show up in).

Accessible seating is often priced to give those patrons the same pricing options everyone else has, despite the theater not enabling them to sit anywhere else. When I took my grandmother to Hello Dolly with Bette, we only paid $89 for the last row of the orchestra, even though the seat in front of us was going for $525. But $89 was the cheapest ticket price somewhere in the venue.

That is supposedly a transfer seat: https://www.roundabouttheatre.org/theatres-and-venues/studio-54/studio-54-accessibility/
