Expert Recommendations for the Best Seats at Every Price Point

Discover the perfect seats for "Some Like It Hot" at Hollywood's historic Pantages Theatre. Our seating guide highlights the best value tickets, premium options, and hidden gems to enhance your Broadway experience while staying within your budget.

Best Value Tickets ($86-$90)

• ORCHL Row X ($86): Excellent orchestra side section with minimal price premium for being just 20 rows back. Perfect balance of view and value.
• MEZZR Row M ($87): Center-right mezzanine with comfortable elevation - avoids the steep upper mezzanine while keeping costs low.
• MEZZANINE LEFT/Right Row J ($87): Side mezzanine seats with good diagonal views of the stage (note: no elevator access).

Sweet Spot Seats ($102-$132)

• ORCHL Row SS ($102): Premium orchestra left location at mid-range price - closer than standard orchestra pricing.
• MEZZANINE LEFT Row D ($106): Front mezzanine side section with surprisingly good sightlines to the whole stage.
• ORCHLC Row SS ($132): Left-center orchestra seats in the premium section without premium pricing - rare find.

Higher Tier Options ($150-$185)

• ORCHC Row UU ($150): True center orchestra seating with perfect viewing angles for the full stage picture.
• MEZZC Row G ($150): Dead-center mezzanine with the classic Broadway view - elevated enough to see all choreography.
• ORCHRC Row TT ($151): Right-center orchestra with excellent proximity to the stage (rows TT are about 15th row).

Premium & Last-Minute Seats ($248+)

• ORCHESTRA LEFT/RIGHT CENTER ($248): Front orchestra sections with premium locations - prices jump significantly closer than row NN.
• ORCHC Row B ($322): Ultra-close center seats where you can see performers' expressions - highest demand area.
• MEZZANINE Row A ($637): Front-and-center mezzanine - the absolute best elevated view in the house.

View Considerations

• Orchestra Left/Right: Side sections have slightly angled views but often better prices. Rows X-ZZ are under the mezzanine overhang.
• Mezzanine Warning: Rows Q and higher in mezzanine can feel quite steep and distant - best to stay in Rows A-J when possible.
• Obstruction Note: Some far side mezzanine seats may have minor view obstructions from railings or lighting equipment.

Our Top 3 Picks

1. ORCHLC Row SS ($132): Best combination of center-left positioning and reasonable pricing
2. MEZZANINE LEFT Row D ($106): Outstanding mezzanine value with comfortable viewing elevation
3. ORCHL Row X ($86): Lowest price point for quality orchestra seating

Special Recommendations

• For dance-heavy shows like "Some Like It Hot," mezzanine center seats between Rows D-J offer the best perspective for choreography.
• Orchestra seats beyond Row XX may feel too far back - consider moving up to mezzanine for better sightlines at similar prices.
• Check the Pantages' detailed seating chart for exact seat numbers - some side seats in recommended sections may have partially obstructed views.
