I was thinking about bringing my sister to New York this weekend to see Annie. It will be her first Broadway show, and I am really excited. Ticket availability is not great, and I was wondering if anyone can tell me what the view is like from the Side Orch? I was lokking at Row M, seats 2 and 4. The other option I was looking at was Front Mezz, Row D, seats 113 and 114. Would you recommend one over the other? I want to make sure she is able to see.

Thank you in advance for any help you are able to offer. And please don't offer the advice to "See another show." I can't stand Annie, but she loves the movie, so I think she might enjoy the show.

Personally, I think the mezz is the best place in the Palace to sit.. I think those side orchestra would be too far over.. but maybe it's just me!

Front mezz center is definitely the way to go and especially at that theater. Hope she enjoys her first Broadway show. I happen to be an Annie fan but this production was a disappointment to me but much better compared to the 1997 production.

I always reference this site and having been to the Palace several times (twice for Annie), I agree with its recommendation to avoid those side orchestra seats since the theatre is so much wider than the stage.

Thank you all very much for the recommendations. I am glad I came here to ask first! I have purchased the tickets.
