Where to sit for Cirque

[Rneighh]

We are planning to seeing Cirque for our upcoming trip. Where should be sit --- Section 1 or 2 and on the side or the front. I have heard that Section 2 is a better view than some seats in Section 1. What do you Cirque experts say?

Our first time we were in the first section, front row, on the side. This past Saturday we were in the second section, front row, right next to the guy who programs the lighting effects. We enjoyed both seats; here were the differences we found:

Pros for the first section: In the very front it's neat to have eye contact with the performers. You're not distracted by people coming in and out.

Pros for the second section: We felt this to be a bit better view, and you can see the performers in the aisle easily without having to turn around at all.

Cons for the front section: In the very front, your neck does get tired from looking up most of the show.

Cons for the second section: We couldn't believe how many people they let go in and out throughout the show! It was a bit distracting... One woman behind us left at least 5 times to get snacks?! It's a live show people, not your TV at home, stock up on snacks before you come I can see if you really have to go to the bathroom, or your child starts screaming, but for snacks? Sorry, mini-vent..

Have a great time

I opted for the end of the last row of the center of section 1
