Looking to take my Son as a treat in the 6 week break.( he is 6)
Happy to hear suggestions for all different seat types.
My main concern is him being able to see it clear enough.
Are booster seats offered?
TIA 🦁

I took my goddaughter who was about 8 at the time and we were in an aisle seat half way back … she could see the stage clearly and was delighted when the cast came sweeping down the aisle right past her.

i think there were boosters but not many.

I always booked front few rows but near an aisle for children old enough to see a musical.
It kept their attention. Honey sandwiches and water in bag.

I reckon the show is too long for a 6 year old, I didn't find it particularly child friendly. Sorry, I know that's not what you were asking.
Try theatre monkey to get specific seat info.

An aisle seat so you can get up for toilet etc without disturbing others

My 5 year old really enjoyed it when went in April.
We were as far back as you can be almost and she was happy with her view, there were a good amount of boosters but probably best to get there early to get one. There is no AC though and was almost unbearably hot when we went.
