Has anyone been to a show at The Sharon? I want to take my son to see Tony Orlando at Christmas time because we know a couple of his band members. But because of Patrick's visual and physical disabilities, I am very particular about where he sits. I looked at the website and I see that there are disabled seats, but they are 11 rows back. Has anyone been in the front row seats?

NOBODY's been to The Sharon? I know some of the shows have sold out.
If anyone goes within the next few weeks, will you please let me know about the accessible seating and the front row seat views? Are there steps down to the front row?

I am also sending an email to the entertainment dept. to get advice on this.

How about calling them and ask to see the inside. Plenty of us have been, i for one was not looking for seats as you describe.

Connie, I have been there a number of times and have always sat in one of the first 3 rows. I, too am "somewhat" visually impaired and about the same with my hearing. Get as close as you can. It is a truly remarkable venue.

Good luck. You'll like it a lot!!

Connie we have sat in the 4th row counting from the stage. Visually very good. Can your son come out of the wheelchair? Perhaps if you got an aisle seat for him you could do a transfer from wheelchair to aisle seat.

oh, wow, that's great! so, I assume it's a ram aisle not steps down to the front, so I could transfer Patrick to the front seat and fold his wheelchair to the side!

Thank you so much.

thanks, Ted (another Quick) We really should get you and Chuck and Jack to meet. It would be so much fun to take a photo of the 3 Quicks in The Villages!
