If I say 'Yes' will you sell the tickets to me at face value?!??

Speaking from memory of winning the lottery for Drowsy, the front row did require a bit of looking up but I could see the back of the stage OK. Not sure if 9-5 uses a deeper stage, it would be a pity if you couldn't see the projection screens. I saw it last night from front row center of the mezz and the view was perfect.

The production was pretty darn good too and I thought Alison Janney was sublime. re: 9 to 5 seating question

Hopefully someone can give you a better answer re. your seats.


Seen some shows in my time....

I was front row on the side last night and thought the view was pretty darn good, I could only imagine second row center to be better.

I hope they're good because I bought tix for this December and we're Orchestra B seats 105-106. Loing forward to seeing it!

They should be fine. I remember sitting front row for Cry Baby and I couldn't have asked for a better view. Enjoy the show! :)

How about second row all the way to the left. I'll be there May 9 with seats all the way to the left. Does anyone have any idea of how those would be?

The only really bad seats in that theater are once you get under the overhang of the mezz. There you lose the top 1/3 of the stage quickly the further you go back.

Row C on the sides is fine so long as you are in the first four seats off the aisle. Anything farther than that and you are risking some obstruction.

I sat in the front row for Drowsy and don't recall craning my neck at all. I thought they were fine seats, and I saw everything fine.

Has anyone sat in the First Row Mezz? I have tickets there and haven't sat in the first row of the Marquis Mezz (only the 4th for Drowsy) and I'm wondering if there is a bar or any other kind of obscuring of view, such as the balcony at the Palace, which was incredibly annoying.

I was in the first row on the mezz and it was a great view. The bar bothered me a tiny bit, but that's mostly because I'm short and have bad posture. re: 9 to 5 seating question
