Oh, I'm sure upstairs is fine, but I found nothing wrong with the sitelines from where I sat.

I would think some of the things that happen at the end that are far back (upstage) might be more difficult to see from the mezz - I say "might" because I've never been in the Laura Pels mezz.

I just saw it, and you do bring up a good point about stuff far back upstage. I was on a side aisle downstairs and I did wonder if people several seats over closer to the side could see the important imagery at the end.

The one problem for me sitting downstairs was the dinner sequence. For much of it, the only face I could see was Reed Birney's in profile. I think I would not have had that problem upstairs. I would not have been able to see everyone's face, but I think I probably would have been to see at least three. There are some sightline issues, which I'm told they're aware of.

Anyway, I thought it was one of the best shows I've seen in years.

If you mean being able to see the upstage door on the lower level, that's not a problem. My Access10 ticket was in Row C of the mezz and I saw everything fine.

This was my first time in the Mezz at the Laura Pels. I thought it was wonderful. It's quite an intimate Mezz. Only 3 rows! Great view for this show.

Stay away from row A in the mezz since the bar can really block your view.
