Not a bad seat! Decent view, slightly obscured, but you won't miss any of the action. It's pretty cramped, and some of the lights flash right in your face, but it's an exciting show, so it was still a great experience!
View of Stage Right is partially obstructed (particularly the upstage corner) by any sound system setup. The actors are visible enough in general, though, even with a full crowd.

Decent seats, especially with ArtsBos discount. Very partially obscured view, just very edge of stage, don’t miss anything.

Handrail obstructed a very little bit but there was leg room.
Very little leg room (like many seats in the theatre). Good view, can see everything, but some action stage right is almost out of view. Definitely would not take a seat any farther to the left... Especially not since they charge premium seating prices.

Awesome! Theater is small enough it seems like every seat will be a good one. Close to the action! A few cons: limited bathroom stalls, no cup holders in the seats, and drinks are extremely overpriced. Plus: you can bring drinks in the theater!

Balcony above does NOT obstruct center stage set... Elephant’s eyes and up on far right of set are obstructed...but none of the action happens there. Great seats!

Great view! One or two seats over has a pole blocking the view.

Speaker tower blocks stage right set walls but the real issue is the extraordinarily little amount of leg room. At 6'1" my knees are in the back of the person in front of me. If you are at all tall or wide, aisle seats are a must in this theatre or else

Very good view from Dress Circle, G7 (better than blurry photo indicates, actually). No complaints, though leg room is a little tight.

We paid premium pricing for these seats and were never told they would be severely obstructed. We could not see most of the show. Only if they were on far right of stage or up front. Very disappointed. Show was fabulous from what I heard.

Great seat except the head in front did block a little bit of the downstage and i had to keep adjusting. Also leg room in this theater is terrible if taller then 5”11 look elsewhere u will be cramped
Slightly obstructed view of the far left (stage right) side of stage. Still could see most of the action, but take note: Several people in the row in front of us moved back to ours, so I believe they had serious trouble viewing, but we were okay (K13,15)

Bring binoculars if you want to see expressions! The view was completely unobstructed.

Awesome seats for the tryout of the amazing new musical which will make Hamilton affordable!

Excellent seats for viewing! Steep. Small seats and little leg room. Half price too!
Section Mezzanine
Perfect seats. Could see every single thing.
Section Orch
Perfect view!

Partially obscured view - may depend on show how much impact it has
Excellent seats
Seat is close enough to really see performers faces. Can't see the right wall on stage. Seats are tight.
Section Orchestra C
Excellent seat (even though it's 4 rows from the back). This seat is right in the center with a great view of the entire stage.
