Forrest Theatre | "Some Like It Hot" Seating Guide & Best Ticket Values
Expert Recommendations for the Best Views at Every Price Point
The historic Forrest Theatre offers three distinct seating levels for "Some Like It Hot": Orchestra, Front Mezzanine, and Rear Mezzanine. Below are our expert picks for the best value tickets, sweet spots, and premium options—complete with view descriptions and price comparisons.
Best Value Tickets ($109-$130)
- Rear Mezzanine Rows N-P ($109): Excellent budget option with surprisingly good sightlines. While higher up, the steep rake ensures clear stage views. Best for price-conscious buyers who don't mind stairs.
- Rear Mezzanine Rows B-F ($130): Closer to the front of the upper level with minimal obstruction. Rows D-F sit at the ideal elevation to take in the full stage picture—perfect for appreciating dance numbers.
Sweet Spot Tickets ($147-$176)
- Rear Mezzanine Rows J-M ($147): The "Goldilocks zone" of the theater—far enough back for perspective but close enough to see facial expressions. Row L center offers particularly balanced acoustics.
- Orchestra Rows X-Z ($166-$176): Back orchestra seats with full stage visibility. While not premium, these avoid the extreme side views of cheaper orchestra seats. Ideal for those who want floor seating without the premium price.
Higher Tier Options ($242-$278)
- Center Orchestra Rows P-S ($242): Prime viewing distance where you can appreciate both the big picture and performer details. These often sell out first for musicals.
- Front Mezzanine Center Rows D-E ($257): Our top recommendation for mezzanine lovers. Elevated perspective perfect for choreography, with no overhang obstruction. Row E provides ideal head-on viewing.
Premium & Last-Minute Seats ($313+)
- Orchestra Rows BB ($333-$738): Ultra-close "pony seats" where you'll feel part of the action. Best for fans wanting maximum immersion—you may even catch some interaction with performers.
- Front Mezzanine Row A ($176 single seat): Rare solo ticket with the mezzanine's best vantage point. Often released last-minute when production holds are released.
View Comparison Guide
- Orchestra Side Seats: Rows X-Z in left/right sections have slight angled views. Fine for the price but you may miss some upstage action.
- Front vs. Rear Mezzanine: Front Mezzanine (Rows A-F) offers clearer sightlines to facial expressions, while Rear Mezzanine (Rows B-P) provides better overall perspective for dance-heavy shows.
- Avoid Extreme Sides: Sections labeled "Left" or "Right" beyond row K may have partially obstructed views of the far side of the stage.
Pro Tips for "Some Like It Hot"
- The tap dance sequences look spectacular from mezzanine seats (Rows D-M in either front or rear)
- Comedy scenes play best from center orchestra (Rows P-Y) where you can catch all facial reactions
- For group sales, the Rear Mezzanine Left Row P ($262 for 6) offers exceptional value
