Fantastic seat. You'd think being on the side you'd miss things, but you pretty much see the entire show. I only missed about 10 seconds of something not even important to the plot. You can see facial expressions clearly. Sound was only okay, but I think it's because of a sound design issue. Don't sit too far into the rear mezzanine or the catwalk will block your view. Any further right may not be good either, but I'm not sure.

Really great seat! Got this as an option for winning the lotto. Depending on who is in front of you, their head may slightly get in the way, as the seat elevation isn't stellar, but you'll most likely be fine. Definitely a recommended seat.
It's actually not a bad seat. The row goes upwards so you see over everyone's heads. Ive been in other rows closer and unable to see because the rows are flat leveled. I'm happy with this! There were times that the actors were on the side view but not for that long where we couldn't see. They were always in sight.
One of the best seats in the house! Right in front of "Frankie", most of the time. The August Wilson Theatre is quite small, so every seat is a good seat, except for the last few rows which only allow for a partial view of the stage.

For this show the circular stage means it is slightly better to be less central if you take the front row. I am six foot and could see the floor of the stage. Got this seat as discounted at $69.50 and it was a great view of the show.

Great seat. Just in front of overhang. 4th seat from wall, 5th from center aisle
Amazing seat! full view of everything the entire show. more elevated than the row in front and plenty of leg room! Did not miss a thing the whole show - would highly recommend these seats

Section Left Orchestra
Fantastic view!
Section Mezz
Lined up with row in front of it, no rise. .Had to keep moving in between heads in front of me.
good seat to the left - no sight line issues
great lottery seats, last row in front mezzanine.
A great view for less money
Section Mezz C
Clear view of the stage. Got this seat as a lottery loser offer. Mezz is better than Orch back rows.
Good lottery seats. This row is not as high up as the others so if someone tall is in front they block you easily.
Section Mezzanine
Really great seat. Rail did not block view at all; saw everything except a small portion of stage right, but you barely notice. Amazing show!
We are one seat from the bank of the theater. Not a bad seat in the house honestly!
Section Mezzanine Right
Great Seat!!!
Section MEZZC
Great seat! You don't miss anything.
Can be tricky to see around heads in next row, but great angle on the stage
Section MEZZL
Great seat, front row of the Mezzanine. Could see everything perfectly. Really good perspective on the show.
Won the lottery again for this mesmerizing musical! Go catch this in it's final week!
Section MezzL
No obstruction, great view. The railing is in front of you so you can stick your feet thru to stretch your legs = added bonus ????

Great seats. Can see everything and still see great facial expression too. Small intimate theatre
Lottery seat selection; partial view through the entire show because of the bald man that kept leaning forward and would extend his neck!
Definetely miss some stuff in the top because of the mezzanine hangover.
Good seat but the 4 people in front of us all had big hair and bodies.
Perfect view!
Section ORCHR
Lottery seats far right orchestra, 3 seats from the right wall. Pretty good views.
