Mark Taper Forum Seating Guide for "Hamlet" – Best Views & Value
Smart Seat Selection for Shakespeare's Masterpiece
The Mark Taper Forum's intimate 739-seat thrust stage demands careful seat selection. Our theater experts have analyzed every section for this production of "Hamlet" to help you find the perfect balance of view quality and ticket value.
Best Value Tickets (Top Price-to-View Ratio)
- Section B, Row M ($48): Excellent angled view of the stage with full actor visibility. The Taper's unique geometry means these side seats often outperform more expensive center seats. Perfect for budget-conscious theatergoers who don't want to sacrifice quality.
- Floor Section, Row L ($79): Slightly elevated view eliminates any potential sightline issues. Close enough to see facial expressions clearly while maintaining perspective on the full stage movement.
Sweet Spot Seats (Premium Balance of Availability & Experience)
- Section A, Row P ($179): True center-section seats with perfect sightlines to all stage areas. The Taper's steep rake ensures clear views over heads. Ideal for those wanting the classic theatrical experience without VIP prices.
View Comparison & Section Notes
- Section B (Angled): Provides dynamic perspectives of blocking patterns - especially valuable for Shakespearean staging. Actors frequently play to these sections.
- Floor Section: Slightly wider seats with more legroom. Minimal elevation change means taller patrons may obstruct views in rows behind.
- Section A (Center): Unobstructed sightlines but lacks the dramatic angles that make thrust staging compelling. Best for traditionalists.
Expert Recommendations
- For Intimacy: Floor Section, Row L places you just 15 rows from the action while maintaining full stage visibility.
- For Value: Section B tickets at $48 offer 90% of the experience at 40% of center-section prices.
- For Groups: The available Section A block (6 seats together) is rare for this production - snap these up if needing multiple seats.
- Avoid: Rows AA-DD in center sections - while close, they require uncomfortable neck angles to see upper staging.
Premium Options
While no true VIP packages are offered for this production, the center Section A seats represent the premium experience at the Taper. Consider pairing with nearby pre-theater dining at Patina for a complete evening.
Last-Minute Strategy
Day-of-performance releases often include:
- Obstructed view seats at 40-50% discounts (still decent visibility at the Taper)
- Single seats in premium locations returned by season subscribers
