A View From My Seat shows a photo from M 12 that doesn't look too far to the side but I'm more worried I won't be able to see facial expressions.
Also with so many tickets on StubHub, I'm wondering if there isn't an understudy on for someone. It just seems strange that the past couple days have been pretty much completely sold even the ridiculously priced seats ($200 for last row in rear mezz, really?) and tonight, a weekend night, there are suddenly a couple hundred tickets available. Maybe everything is fine, but I'm just skeptical. It feels like there has to be a catch."
I don't think there should be major planned absences. Scalpers likely just got overeager with this show. When I saw it on a Friday night with a $30 StubHub ticket, everyone was on except Etai Benson because he's on vacation Jan. 17 - Feb. 4. But Daniel David Stewart, who originated the role Off-Broadway, is there in his place. So really, it wasn't like anyone was out at all.
