Hi everyone- im looking to buy Annie tickets, and have a discount code for rear mezz or balcony (I could get second row center). I saw Annie in previews in the front row due to the lotto, and walked up to the balcony to see. It didnt seem too bad, but I was wondering if the rear mezz may actually be better, despite the overhang.

Thanks guys!

Personally when I saw Legally Blonde in the balcony I felt it was to far and unsafe, very steep.

I sat on the balcony when I saw Prisicilla and I did not find it anywhere near as bad as people on here have said... My only problem was people in the front row leaning over and blocking the stage with their heads.

The balcony is steep and feels like it's miles away from the stage. Avoid at all costs. Opt for the mezzanine.

Go for Mez, the Balcony makes one feel like a seat belt should be provided with every ticket. I've sat in the balcony once, and pretty much every where else in that theatre.

Well, yeah, that's the problem. There is a bar running across the front of the balcony that blocks the view of the front row. So the people in the front row have to lean forward to see, and then no one behind them can see, rendering the entire balcony partial view at best.

Avoid the balcony. Go with the mezzanine.
