I am going to be seeing Wicked, but the only seats avaliable for the specific day are Partial View. Any opinions on those seats? Are they worth it? What do you miss?

I would not suggest sitting in the row A partial view seats. I sat there and although it was fun to be so close and see some off stage stuff, as well as all the hot chorus boys up close, I don't feel like I really SAW the show. It was a totally different experience from when I have seen the show before. Further back would probably be a lot better. :)

Do not buy the partial view seats. Let me preface this by saying that I'm pretty easy when it comes to seating, but I lost A LOT of the show. Also, I found it very distracting that at the performance I saw, I was close enough to see & hear several ensemble members totally out of character and clearly having little personal joke moments during the show. I would rather have sat in the balcony. The show is just so big that it's hard to take in from a very close seat, especially a very close seat on the side.

If you've seen the show in full view before, then partial view is fine. But if you're seeing it for the first time, I don't reccomend partial view.

Well if nothing else is available and you can't wait, buy them. Take what you can get with Wicked, beggers can't be choosers.

Wicked is worth *anything*, but that said, I wouldn't have wanted my first time seeing it to be partial view. You don't miss much, but you DO miss some things completely - I was on the end of the front row and the whole birth scene was masked by ensemble. Now this was my 4th time seeing it so I wasn't bothered, but the poor people behind me were craning their necks trying to figure out what was going on...
Of the main action though, you really don't miss much, if anything. A lot of entrances if they're on the side you're on, but you won't miss anything vital. And it's really fun if you're nice and close
