Is there any reason sitting toward the edge of row D in the orchestra at the Jacobs would be an issue for Parade? I know it's technically "partially obstructed view" or whatever, but the folks who sat there for Company didn't seem to have a problem. Wondering if this show is any different?

You will not be able to see anything on the other side of the big box inexplicably placed in the middle of the stage.

This is the view from A 3, a full-priced "full-view" seat, so you can see how problematic the front orchestra is:

I was in Row F, pretty right, and I saw Leo fairly well during the trial, but yeah, anywhere in front orchestra and you are missing the back of the platform and could easily have the raised platform block this or that. like A Dolls House, a totally nonsensical way to stage the show. 

Since I don't think mezz is any more expensive than orch, you should 100% sit up there if you can.
