I'm seeing it. I wish they had student pricing, because those tickets took a bite out of my wallet.

Anyone familiar with the Cannon theatre in Toronto? I got 3 tickets in the front of the orchestra off to the right and 3 tickets in the second row of the mezz off to the left...

Not sure which ones to take... Since I ordered them I get to pick :)

absolutknight, what row in the orchestra? If you know row and seat numbers, I could probably give you an opinion. I've been to the Canon a few times.

Hah, The Cannon theatre is litterally across the street from my school. I see it everyday, pretty much from my classrooms. Which means I'll be stage dooring it quite a bit.

Those seats sound fine. My only advice is don't ever get mid- or rear mezzanine -- you feel like you're miles from the stage. The Canon Theatre is cavernous, but since your seats are relatively close to the stage, I wouldn't be worried.

And Link, I didn't know you went to Ryerson!

Sadly I am in those far reaches w my sis her husband & my nieces. I was willing to treat my neice but their father was unwilling to pay the extra whack so since I saw it in New York I was willing to compromise cos I want my girls to see it.
