Great Show But Seating Offset Could be Better
by LloydGC222 on 4/14/19Ulster Performing Arts Center - KingstonI was with a party that very much enjoyed seeing Angelique Kidjo at UPAC. She was amazing, as usual. We loved her renditions of Talking Heads songs. We liked that Angelique engaged with the audience - encouraging the audience to stand up and sing with her at times, walking through the aisles TWICE and inviting audience members to the stage to dance. The aisle walks take up extra time. I would have preferred that she only walk through the aisles once and had given us an extra number or two. On the seating, it becomes virtually impossible to see center stage if two tall people are sitting in front of you. People who design theatres should be required to sit in all the various seats to get an audience member's perspective. It's disappointing to spend money on a concert and then have unexpected partial viewing.
