@scottydawgs: i spoke to someone with the theater, and she indicated that there are seats throughout the venue's orchestra section (which is GA), but that the TAB customarily "invite the patrons" to approach the stage area (i appreciated that turn of phrase). i take it that this system will result in dozens of seats on the orchestra level being abandoned for a spot closer to the stage.

she also indicated that if you purchased balcony seats, reserved seating would be in effect.
