We were two rows from the top, behind the people who can lean on the rail, and just barely away from the wall. I could see the top right-hand side of the stage from my seat.

(Leaning out only let you see about 3/4 of the stage..) I split my time between the screen of translation and leaning out to see what on earth was going on….
