La Boheme/Broadway Theatre - seat question
 
Are traveling to NYC in March with daughter who is a theatre major. So far have tix to Hairspray and Chicago, she wants to see La Boheme. Tix are $100 for the best seats but how awful are the rear mezz seats in that theatre? ($45). Don't see that this play shows up at TKTS. Has anyone sat in the rear mezzanine at the Broadway Theatre and how was it?

The Broadway theatre is one of the larger ones and the rear mezzanine is way back there. Many people enjoy it from there, but I happen to be a person who really wants to be up close (usually front row of mezzanine is as far back as I'll go). I cannot see faces at a bgreat distance and as a theatre person, I find that very, very important.

Thanks Patrick, looks like seats are at Row L of mezz. I know, I'd prefer to be closer (although once had second row while seeing &quot;Noises Off&quot;, a bit TOOO close), but trying to see 4 plays in 4 days and keep cost reasonable.<BR><BR>What do you know about the Neil Simon theatre, also ended up with rear mezz. seats there as well!

You should be okay in the Neil Simon, which is smaller than the Broadway.

Thanks - kinda what I thought. Do you have any thoughts on the Broadway Theatre? I still have purchased any tix.
