Curious Incident/Too close?

Posted by: Duke1979 06:01 pm EDT 09/14/14

Are the first few rows of the orchestra too close to take in all the effects? Thanks

Make sure it it center. The front sides are terrible.

So there's a discount code for this show (YAY!) but I don't remember the layout of the Barrymore. Would you sacrifice being in the orchestra (the discounts are only on the sides) for the center of the rear mezz??

There's also the back of the front mezz in the center for a few shows... Thanks for your help making the most informed decision! You guys are great.

Mezzanine is definitely better than Orchestra sides for this show. Of what you listed, back of the front center mezz would be a great view.

We were in the second row and had friends in the first row. We all loved our seats! Make sure you're in the center section.

We were in the 4th row side of the rear mezzanine. Saw and heard very well. Center might be better but the side mezz. seat was fine.

We sat front row in London, which were the day seats for the show. The stage there was not too high, and we had a great view.

In London, you couldn't see the stage floor, and I presume it is the same here, but all of the projections are also on the side/back walls. There are some elements of the staging that are a bit lost, but overall it was great, and we loved the show.

As long as the Barrymore stage isn't too high, you should be okay.

This is the play that was done in London when the theatre collapsed...right?

The relevance to the question escapes me, but... Yes. (nm)
