Box seats vs mezzainne level in a theater?

Question:which are better?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: which are better?

like other posters have said, box sets usually offer a somewhat obstructed view.

Unfortunatley I can't speak fromfirst hand experience on this issue, since I have never sat in the box seats for lion king.

But the center mezz. will offer a direct view of the entire stage- that way that it was meant to be viewed.

I like to think of box seats this way "better to be seen- but not better to see"

center of the theater is just about always the best.

And for a show like lion king that is very "big" you will appreciate the view from the mezz. a lot, even more so than you might for other shows.

From the center mezz. you get the whole picture-which is very important for big shows like LK

sorry for rambling

If this is a follow-up from your previous question, I'd probably go for the center stage mezzanine. Personally, that's just me. Sure, the box seats might be up closer, but the stage looks odd when you're that far to the left or right. Maybe that's just me.

Mezzanine, generally box seats are on the sides of th theatre making it more difficult to see the stage than if you were dead on facing it in the mezzanine.
