Has anyone sat in the front row for The Ferryman? How was the stage height? We're currently looking at either first or third row orchestra, but don't want to be obstructed.

We were in the fourth row center and not in the least obstructed. I can't imagine that the third row is worse, and even the first row seemed fine. The stage is  not super high but the heads in front of us provided no obstruction. Now, if you are talking about first to third rows on the far sides, you may have an issue with obstruction from some of the set - there is a chair  and staircase on stage left / house right, and Aunt Maggie's wheelchair could block those at an extreme angle sitting on house left in some scenes. Center orchestra should be absolutely fine - we were happy to be as close as we were and could see the stage in full.

I sat in the front row center and had a great time. The stage was relatively low. There were only a few minutes during the family dinner scene when some of the actors were obstructed. However, the closeness of the action made up for that. I was so absorbed that I jumped out of my seat near the end.

I sat in first row Orch Center. The seat was fine. The stage is not too high. One tiny issue is when they are having dinner at the table, the view is not so good. 

 

But if would go for a second round, I would choose fourth row Orch Center.

I was in the second row center orch, all the way stage left. The only time I was annoyed with my seat was the dinner scene, because I couldnt quite see everyone, but that only lasted a few minutes. Other than that it was awesome to be so close. The stage wasnt too high either. Here is a pic I took
