Beatles/Cirque Love show question for those who've seen it XVP

Is front row ideal for this show - or is it like most CDS shows where up a bit is better?

Choices seem to be section 101 - row A versus 203 row O. The latter is less expensive, but that is not really the issue. For those who have seen it - which do you think is a better view?

Many thanks,

Bill

I don’t think there are any bad seats in this theater in the round, but I would personally sit a few rows back to get a wider perspective on the action. The show is really about the music and the amazing sound system. The acrobatics are more an illustration of the music than a show unto themselves, but that being said the roller-skating scene is one of my favorite of all the Cirque acts.

Based upon my memory of when we attended a Love performance in 2006, I’d say the “sweet spot” is somewhere between those two seating options. However, of the two, I think I’d definitely go for front row Section 101.

The nature of the theater is such that you don’t want to be right on top of the stage. Fortunately, Section 101 is one of the sections that are positioned back just a bit and likely affords a rather awesome vantage point in which to take in the show.

Closer is better. Just saw it two weeks ago. Lots of empty seats up front

I have to completely disagree. That’s why there were empty seats up front. I’ve seen this show 6 times, and always the best vantage point for the show is anywhere in the middle. Don’t get fooled by those who would be willing to sell you more expensive seats up front. Because of the nature of this show, with the abundance of above stage performance, you’ll want to be back from the front, or you’ll get a sore neck from looking up. Do see the show at any cost, it is so very worth it.

I’d go with section 101 if you can gets seats closer to seat 13 than seat 1. It is a little close, but you should actually get a better ‘big picture’ view. Even though it is in the round, Section 203 is just a little too far too the side for the extensive projection work.
The best seats are the first row of sections 200 and 209.
Take Care,

Saw it. 1st row. Not good. Need to be up and back a bit to appreciate the show.
