Anyone sit in either of the boxes?  Curious about site lines and potential partial view.  Seems to be a number of these seats available throughout the summer.

Are they being sold online?

I sat first row mezzanine center for the first preview so my view was in full intended composition staging. 

Horace's 3-tier store/apartment set and Irene Malloy's hat shop set never extended to the wings so there shouldn't be any partial view issues whatsoever during these scenes.  The only set which could create some partial view issues would be the Harmonia Gardens' 2 circular curtained private dining room sets - one house left and one house right (which slightly glides forward and backwards).  Depending on which box seat you're sitting in, you'll most likely miss the action inside the private dining room on your side but will have a clear view into the private dining room opposite your box seat.   

NOTE: Cornelius, Irene, Minnie & Barnaby are in the private dining room - house left.  Horace & Ernestina are in the one house right. 

Also, Bette/Dolly's dining table is moved to house left during the polka dance contest and remains there during most of the court room scene so you could be getting a slight view of her side if you're in the house left box.  Maybe not as she is slightly angled towards the audience.  

I hope this helps many on here.

Thanks so much.  I bought one set house left and the other house right.

Sorry to be so obtuse....I don't see the possibility to buy box seats on Telecharge?  Is that where you purchased them or from a 3rd party seller?

I bought them on Telecharge.  Box Seats is listed as an option when you select which tickets you want to see.  Wasn't even looking for those, just decently priced seats and I saw these.

I'll look again, thanks.   I must have not looked as carefully as I thought!

There are some box seats available for next week.  And they are regularly prices.  Has anyone gotten to sit there?  I am tempted.

So can someone tell me if left box, row A/3,4 or right box, row c/1,2 are decent seats? Available now and I'm very interested. Never saw the show so want to make sure we are not deprived of critical elements of the show.

It does help - should i grab left or right....or just wait for better option. Cost is 229 per ticket, and that's a more desirable price point than what's being offered as premium (600). 

Can't believe the stubhub fees...
