Best Value Tickets ($124-$142)

• Section 2, Row S: Multiple tickets available at $124-$140. These are rear section seats but still within 60 feet of the stage - great for budget-conscious buyers.

Sweet Spot Seats ($165-$186)

• Section 1, Rows 3H-11H ($176-$186): Center-section seating with elevated views perfect for catching all the aerial illusions. Row 7H is particularly well-priced at $176.

Higher Tier Options ($191-$232)

Key Viewing Differences

• Section 1 vs Section 2: Section 1 is closer to the stage (50-60 feet) while Section 2 provides a more panoramic view (60-80 feet).
• Row Letters Matter: Earlier alphabet rows (A-J) are closer to the stage than later letters (Q-S). The theater uses a non-sequential lettering system.
