I just bought my grandaparents the last available ticketmaster wicked tickets. The only problem is that they were in rear mezzanine row m seats 105 and 106. please tell me if they will be able to see well or at all. I really want them to be able to enjoy their first NY show. thanx so much
if they don't have poor eye sight they should be fine. If they do tell them to bring binoculars because they will need it. I mean it is one of the (if not the) biggest houses on broadway.
Capacity wise, The Gershwin Theatre is the biggest currently having a show on Broadway. The Hilton Theatre is just shy of that by less than ten seats, I believe. The Broadway Theatre seemed to go farther back than the Gershwin.
The mezzanine is perfect for Wicked. Since they are far back, yes, they will see everything. However they won't make out facial expressions and such. The seats will have a great view of the stage, actiong, staging and everything. They won't really miss anything, just some laughs due to facial expressions.
Good thing the acting in Wicked requires no use of facial expressions.
