I actually sat in the last row last year and they were perfectly fine. If you're one who needs to see facial expressions perfectly, then those seats aren't for you. However, I made out expressions just fine and the mezz overhang just barely obstructs your view of the dragon (which isn't really important).

I personally did not like sitting there. You miss seeing the Time Dragon Clock I believe and the flying monkeys. I have sat in both the front orchestra, the back of the orchestra, and the mezz and I prefer the mezz. You get to see the whole stage from there.

Did you buy your tickets yet? I was in the partial view seats in Row J, but that theater was probably one of the biggest theaters I've ever been in. The last row did look farther from the stage than other theaters I've been in. Personally, I wouldn't buy the seats, but if you already bought them, I am sure you will be fine.

last time I saw it I was in rox X of the orchestra which I think is three rows from the back and it was fine. You just missed the very top of the set. You couldnt see anything above the dragon.

^There isn't anything above the dragon.

Don't believe everything that you hear! Only the peeps involved know the truth!
