question about the Imperial

I'm sorry, first of all, I know this board doesn't need yet another stupid question, but I have looked *everywhere* and to no avail.

I've never been in the Imperial before so I'm at a loss trying to pick which pair of tickets I want (for DRS) - both are centre orch, row AA (front) or M (14th). Is the front row too close? Will we be craning our necks to look up and miss a ton of stuff? And is M too far back to be able to see all the tiny details? I'm a theatre snob. I prefer not to have to sit further back than row 8. I'm a tiny short-sighted person. I want to be able to see everything! :p

I sat in Row M. It was fine. I didn't miss anything.

Take row M.

I would take the 1st row. I sat 2nd row center and thought it was the perfect seat, so being one row closer would be more amazing. The stage *that I remember of* wasn't high at all. But there is no bad seat in the orchestra. I sat in the 2nd to last row, 3rd to last seat closest to the doors & still had an amazing view!

Gah! I was so close to selecting M then!

You would be fine either way.

sit AA. the only thing you miss is when they change lights on the floor during one of the dance numbers. but you can lift yourself a little off your seat to see those.

Front is so much betters.

I sat front row and it was tough looking up during the balcony scenes.

I'd say you'd be fine either way, but M would be my choice

The Imperial is one of my favorite theatres ever. I saw LES MIZ there a few times, THE BOY FORM OZ and of course DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS
