As I mentioned, I think if you can nab an aisle seat on the outside, her line of vision will be the best. How close would depend on what you want to spend. See diagram:

XX* XXXXXXXX *XX

I am suggesting somewhere about where either of the "*"s are, in the general scheme of things (relative to the floor area; I do NOT mean the 5th row, which would be too close; I mean about halfway back or slightly farther back). But, aisle seats (plus however many you need adjacent) may be hard to come by; maybe you have flexibility in what date you will go? Also, the Orchestra section is of course more expensive.

FYI, they have little plastic booster seats for children that are stacked in the hallways* that leads to the auditorium entrances on the side. You can grab one on your way in. My five-year-old daughter uses one when we go to performances there, and it definitely improves her view of the stage.



*I should clarify: it's the booster seats that are stacked in the hallways, not the children. : )
