<p>techiemom, I think I'd have to agree with you to order the tickets now. If it's a special occasion, and they definitely want to see Avenue Q, I'd order them. :) It truly is a fun show. As for the seating, I can't speak for everyone but I enjoy sitting in the orchestra section, and close to the stage. This is a personal preference and many others don't care how close they are. The Golden is a small theatre, as Broadway theatres go, so I'm sure sitting anywhere there is fine but personally, I'd choose orchestra or the first few rows of the front mezzanine, and they're likely the same price. I hope they have a great time!</p>
