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

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.
