If so, are the lower balcony seats good at the Ford? Or are you better of paying more and getting better seats?

There are no bad seats in this theater. I have seen it twice. It is amazing. Once in the lower balcony once in the upper. This way, you can see some of the details that you may not be able too from the main floor. It is not a huge theater, like rosemont etc. Nice, gorgeous architecture. They really did a fabulous job with their renovation. There are bathrooms upstairs as well, just FYI. The lines get pretty long downstairs! There are refreshments avaiable, at a pretty pricy fee. I took a bottle of water the second time around and we went out to eat after the show. Enjoy it! It is Wonderful!

Yes I have seen it there as well as at the Fox in St Louis. I had balcony seats at the Ford and they were great. You can get a really good perspective watching it from the balcony there. I love Wicked and would even see it a 3rd time if possible. Have fun -- you will not be disappointed !!

I saw it at teh Ford in the Balcony. Even in obstructed view seats we could see most everything fine. If you have non-obstructed view seats you should have no problems enjoying the show.

I've been a few times and seen it from both seats. If you're only planning on going once, pay to see if from better seats closer to the stage.

We had seats on the lower balcony, second row on the aisle, and the sight lines were fantastic. I highly recommend the play and the lower balcony. They are very "Popular"!

I was on the main floor orchestra seat. Wicked was WONDERFUL! I was glad to be as close as I was, about 10 rows from the front.

The best that I can recall seeing. I have heard no complaints about seating. I was given first floor up frot seating and they were good too.

These are great seats, and mine were inexpensive as well. Check out the nice tea shop next door to the theater.
