How is the view for Curious Incident from the rear mezzanine?

Was near the rear of the mezzanine, house left of center, and the view was fine. Projections/visual effects were all  quite enjoyable from the top Ethel Barrymore Seating

Seen it 2 times. 1st was center orch row J and was great. 

 

For $27 we got row F RMEZZ and the view really was not bad at all! It was much better than I had anticipated.

I'm looking to get tickets for The Present next month and was wondering people's thoughts on seating at the Barrymore. I was hoping just to buy the cheapest ones so wondering how the rear mezzanine/back of front mezzanine was? Thanks!

For those who've seen The Band's Visit off broadway, is it important to be up close? Looking to buy tickets and wanted some advice...

The view from the rear isn't bad at all, but The Band's Visit is a very, very small and intimate musical. There are no production numbers you'd want to see the staging and choreography for. If it's the best for your budget, go for it, don't miss this show, but I wouldn't want to see it again from that far back since the show shines in subtle realistic moments.

OK thank you! I might try to get the front of the rear mezzanine since it's a pretty good deal.

I myself got the front row of rear mezz for October for now. If I love the show enough to re-watch it, I'd probably go in January again and get Orchestra seats then.

i got two rear mezz seats, the price for two was close to one in the front mezz. Made sense to just see it for cheaper right now currently for my budget
