I have a chance at some tickets to "O". Section 103, lower orchestra, row B. Are these too close to enjoy the show?

Where would you recommend sitting?

I don't think they are too close to enjoy the show. They might not be the very best seats though. That is the best section.

Like most Cirque shows, all seats are good in their own way. Sitting far away gives an overview of stage balance and respect for choreography. Center middle gives more of what you might expect if it were on TV along with excellent sound. The sides give angles to see things off stage and behind the focal point. The front rows are fun for the expression on the faces of actors as well as the costumes.

Wherever you sit, you will miss something that others will see. And you will see things others can not see.

I think that you will enjoy the show from row B and have a great time. I think that if I had the option of your seat, or the same one a few rows back, I'd go a few rows back for height and for depth perception. I think a few rows back would also give a better view of the band, which is off to sides and up high and is a feature of the show.

Be sure and let us know what you decide and how you liked the show!

i think they would be GREAT seats! There is so much going on in Cirque shows that you'll see different things at different angles. But you should enjoy being in the front. You may at a little wet at one point!

I just saw the show again tonight. I think that seat selection is EXCELLENT. Go for it.

You will get wet. You might get wet several times from different sources and get some souvenirs.

Did not get the seats in section 103 (full price). I was able to get some 20% off in section 104 row c instead. Not as good as section 103 I presume but still will be nice.

Thanks again for the insight.
