Even though you might not be able to see as much detail as the people in the orchestra seating, Wicked is great no matter where you sit!. Well, I suppose the very back row of the balcony isn't an ideal spot for a first time, but I'd say those are for the truly desperate!. also, you have an interesting angle when you watch the show; it's like you're watching their lives from a birds eye view!. Glinda in her bubble, the end of act 1, and other things are still amazing, even though you're more at a level with them!.

So go see Wicked!. It's a great show and you'll more likely enjoy it than not!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I haven't see Wicked yet, although I do want to, but I have seen The Lion King from the balcony, it was still cool, I mean you don't get that great of a view, but it was still enjoyable!. :)

Its a great show no matter where you sit!. But my favorite seats are in the Orchestra, right around row S!.

At the Pantages and the Gershwin, there are no bad seats!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
