In short Yes, if you are jumping in head first to a relatively pricey show don't cheap out on the back row seats to save $15. There truly is a huge difference when experiencing a show from the back or from the best seats in the house. Most shows now have assigned seating and you can choose the exact seat you sit in either on line if booking that way or by looking at a chart at the box office. We recommend the center of the orchestra seats, ideally around 5 to 10 seats from the front ( usually row E to K ) make sure you are in the center block and not at the side sat by the wall. If you are seeing a spectacle you don't want to be too close as you will miss the awe of what is happening in front of you, at our favorite show "O" the center block ( section 103 ) row E can not be beat. Le Reve and Love both have unique in the round designed auditoriums and all seats are great. If you are seeing a "star headliner" don't sit at the back, you will spend most of the evening looking at a TV screen of your Idol..sit close and have them spit on you, you paid for it after all .
