REVIEW: Noah The Musical

[woodsouth]

What can I say but this show was awsome!!! Will certainly see it again. We were in the 8th row on the floor and they were good seats but next time we will sit in the second section. The stage is wrap-around and sometimes we were having to turn around to see and I think it would be even better from a bit farther back. Loved the musical and will be going back.

Thanks for your review. We'll be seeing it July 4. Our seats are in the upper level.

We are seeing this show July 3rd.The lady that took our reservations recommended the upper first few rows since we have children attending.Think we have the second row upper level.

We saw the show Noah and it was awesome!!
If anyone is going to make reservations online, don't believe what it says!! We almost didn't go because I checked online and it told me the show was full. Good thing when I got down to Branson I went by and asked!! My advice, call!!!

From all the reviews I've read about Noah, I know it's a great play or show, but why in the world did the people design the theater that way, if people have to turn around and see what is going on if you are in the lower section?
I hope to see this show some time this fall.

You don't have to turn around to see the show in the last 2 rows of the first section. We were in the right hand section, last row, first 4 seats between the right section and center right section. The back edges of the set are just about even with the aisle that runs between the lower level and next level. The side stages are used for a short time, not the entire show.
FWIW, it's not really an upper level as in a balcony. In looking at the seating chart online I presumed it was an upper balcony level. The lower level gently slopes upward, takes a bit of a dip, then slopes gently upward again. There's a wide aisle and then the next section is stairstepped upward. The higher level can be reached from the floor level.
I hope I explained that well.
There is one point that is made in the intro. The show is a fictional account of a factual happening.

That is where we were. Perfect seats.

We saw this show 2 weeks ago and we were in the 2nd level and we could see very well and the show was very good and I can't wait to see the Christmas show in 2009.

We were in row 11, I think, and it wasn't any trouble there. Not much of the show takes place on the sides and we could turn our heads from this row and see the sides with no problem.

It is a wonderful show by the way! We loved it!

Thank you very much.

A man at church has relatives in Branson so he and his wife go quite often. He said that he had heard that Noah was sold out for at least 2 months. I told him that wasn't true that we had bought our tickets only 10 days in advance and had good seats. Of course, there really isn't a bad seat. We were there last Tues night and I'd estimate it to be 95-98% full.
DH and I were quite put out with latecomers being seated. Since we were in the last row on the lower part right in front of an entrance, it was very distracting. The tickets state quite clearly that latecomers won't be seated until intermission.

You are exactly right...it states that quite clearly and so do the agents selling the tickets......but when management tells you one thing and then does another...........whadya gonna do..........I've seen latecomers come strolling in 15 mins after the show starts....like they have til midnite to get in...awww shucks they don't care who they interupt or distract.....latecomers to ANYTHING are VERY annoying to me...........and today for some reason, alot of things are annoying me......

PMS??

I pondered if it would do any good to email management concerning my thoughts about the latecomers.
