on the cheap

And to see the Philly Orchestra...behind the players would be cool.

The seats at Verizon Hall are interesting. First, it's "box" seating in that cheap area on top--freestanding chairs. Compared to the top reaches of most theaters where you have to practically put your knees behind your head due to the limited legroom, it's quite comfy. Second, you're actually looking DOWN on the orchestra. From our seats if you stick your head out you're looking down at the cellos. I've wondered if they've had any trouble with people dropping things?? (the wall has a rail along it, and below the rail the top of the wall is sloped out and down at a fairly steep angle.)
