Cirque du Soleil seating?

[drag n' fly]

We are staying at OKW in April. Dh and I are doing Cirque. I was not sure where in the heck to post this. We bought our tickets today. Does anyone know how the rows are labelled? Does A start at the front of the row and work back in letters Eg; b,c,d or does A start at the back of the section and work it's way forward. Weare trying to figure out where our seats are

It says Curtain B 103 Row H

Thanks!

Here is a link to the seating chart:

Row A is closer to stage, B next, etc. Your seats look wonderful! Enjoy. If you have not seen the show before, you will not be disappointed.

Ok thanks for letting us know. That puts in the last row in section 103. Not too bad of seats. We have never seen Cirque before even though it comes to Calgary. Since we are there with no kids on that trip we are doing lots of fun Mom and Dad stuff!

You will love your seats! We sat in 103 and had a wonderful view. I like sitting close to the stage so you can see every expression on the performers faces!

Here is a larger seating chart from the DIS site that even tells you the numbers on the seats: http://www.wdwinfo.com/wdwinfo/cirque/cirque-seatingmap.htm

IMHO, there is no comparing the Cirque traveling shows with the shows that are presented in theaters specifically constructed for individual shows -- the Vegas shows ("O," "Ka," et al) and, of course "La Nouba" at WDW. I like all of the Cirque shows, but the permanent shows are in a class by themselves.

I've seen a number of Cirque shows, but La Nouba remains my favorite. In particular, I like it much more than the legendary "O" at Bellagio in Vegas. La Nouba, unlike some of the other shows, is really a celebration of the amazing abilities of the performers. The set and staging are stunning, but it's the performers who really ARE the show.

Enjoy!

Also...looking at your seats...you are going to be very much in the performance at a couple of points -- the opening and closing parade/scramble, and the bicycle act.

Wow..I have seen 'O' and La Nouba must be very impressive indeed for you to like it more. I thought 'O' was stunning...we had planned on seeing Ka, but I don't think I can afford those $130.00 seats and still pay for my upcoming DVC
What is the price range for La Nouba?

We paid 245.82 including the 3 bucks shipping for our 2 tickets

We sat in 103, H, 3, 4, 5 and 6....from what I remember....part of the show comes down the aisle. So, you are "in" the show. It's really cool.

Well, first of all Sergei and Balto, the two clowns, will come out and entertain right in the area where you are. Then the opening parade will take place through the aisle right behind you.

During the bicycle act, one of the riders goes into the audience, up one aisle, behind your seats, and then down the other aisle and back onto the stage.

During the "credits" part after the finale, a lot of the performers will be going into the crowd and back onto the stage, so you'll see a lot of them close up.

Wooohoo! That sounds great. I suppose we are not allowed to take pictures?
