David walked into the valley
With a stone clutched in his hand
He was only a boy
But he knew someone must take a stand
There will always be a valley
Always mountains one must scale
There will always be perilous waters
Which someone must sail
-Into the Fire
Scarlet Pimpernel
That's great news about the price. Even at a little distance, it's still great to be able to see the show on a budget and not have to wait in a lottery. So glad to hear!
That last time I was in the balcony at the St. James was for The Producers. If I remember correctly (that was over 10 years ago!), it was very high up but I could still see everything very well. I think the amount of stairs might get to some people.
Last time I was in that balcony was for Finian's Rainbow.. and I agree with the poster above, you couldn't pay me to sit there.. The front of the balcony cuts off the foot of the stage. it's extremely high.. and I've never felt more disconnected from a show than when I sat there
