New MCC space - seating advice

[holdyourbatboy]

For anyone that has been in The Robert C. Wilson MCC Theater Space - how are the sightlines?  Has anyone sat up in the Mezz?  Thanks!

The mezz for Alice By Heart was one of the worst seats I’ve sat in. The sound booth is huge and placed in the middle of both rows, so you can only see half the stage if it’s in your line of sight, unless you’re on the far edges. It’s the only time in 400+ shows I’ve complained about a seat to a house manager. Don’t sit up there.

I don't see any room for a sound booth in this pic. Did you see an early preview of Alice?

Productions chose where to place the sound booths, and Alice chose the direct center of the mezz, taking up about 6 seats in each row. Not sure where the one will be for the next show, but chances will be it’s up in the mezz.

Well, for The Wrong Man, all the seats in the mezzanine are available for sale, so, probably not. Maybe it's off to the side up there, or downstairs.

Had a great view up there for Alice towards the right side.

I will add, Jessie Nelson and Bernie Telsey were sitting behind me the night I saw it. So if the view is good enough for the director/bookwriter and the artistic director/casting director...

I was sitting in the mezz all the way house right for Alice By Heart, and it was a perfect view. And it had the advantage of being far enough away from the stage that the actors couldn't see me cringing and giggling at inappropriate moments.
