I'm buying tickets for Dirty Rotten Scoundrels in March and front row tickets are available. Does anyone know if these seats would be the best choice, or TOO close? We were front row at Light in the Piazza and they were great, but front row at All Shook up was so close that a good part of the action was blocked. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

There was a website when I was looking that seemed to have front row but on the side with partial view. I wouldn't do that. I sat about 6-8 rows back and loved it. Here's the seating chart

The tickets are front row center. Do you think these tickets would be too close or would you get a better perspective a few rows back? Thanks so much!

Kelly, I'm not a good person to ask because I would be happy sitting ON the stage. I honestly can't remember how close the first row was. It wouldn't bother me but you might prefer sitting a bit further back. I guess it depends on what your options are.

I think it would be okay (I was just there a few weeks ago, but had center first balcony or whatever they call it if you have had them elsewhere and find that tolerable. My answer to your question is that of course you would have a better perspective farther back, I think that's universally true for any show. I personally would never want to be in first row for anything visual, but that's me. It would also depend on the options -- like if it were that or only rear balcony or way off to the side somewhere, sure I'd take first row instead. I will admit I am not positive the action wouldn't be partially blocked as I didn't sit in the first row, but I don't like that perspective even if your vision weren't blocked.
