Good view (except when there is an unusually tall person seated directly in your sight line). This seat is almost exactly in the middle of the row, so you climb over a lot of people if you don't arrive to your seat early
Reasonable legroom, the overhang blocks a very small part of the visual vertical stage, but the seat is right next to the door to leave the theater so it's amazing to get to the bathroom at intermission

Despite the overhang I could see all of action on stage.
Great seat for the value! May be lartial view for other shows. But being against the wall it has quite some room to place a bag and some extra legroom!

Comments & Tips
Section Dress Circle LC
Sitting view. Full view of stage with good sound. Saved money being row E and well worth it
Clear view of stage and had good sound. Bathrooms at this level also. View is from standing up

Aisle seat with great view and just under the overhang.
Excellent seat. No obstructions from rail or other patrons from the rows in front.
Fantastic seats with perfect view ans acoustic.

Great view, sound could have been better.

High up and far from the stage, but still a great view and good sound quality.
Section Dress Circle R
Great stage of the view, and a perfect spot where the acoustic blend and everythint can be heard clearly.
Section Family Circle R
Quite far away so performers are very small, but good audio and could see the entire stage. (Moby-Dick)
