Mark Taper Forum Seating Guide for "Hamlet" – Best Views & Value
Best Value Tickets (Budget-Friendly with Good Views)
Section: Reserved B | Row M | $80 - Excellent mid-range option with clear stage sightlines. The Taper's steep stadium seating means even rear rows (like M) maintain good elevation over前排观众. These seats offer 85-90% of the premium experience at 30% of the cost.
Sweet Spot (Optimal Balance of Price & Experience)
Section: Floor | Row K | $125 - Center-floor位置in the iconic thrust configuration places you just 12 rows from the stage with perfect head-on视角. The Taper's intimate 739-seat design means every floor seat feels close, but Row K avoids neck strain from being too close to the steep rake.
Higher Tier Options (Premium Location, Less Value)
Section: Reserved A | Row B | $266 - For true Shakespeare purists who want to see every facial expression. You'll be just 2 rows from the thrust stage - so close you might make eye contact with Hamlet during soliloquies. Note: These extreme close-ups can sometimes require slight head movement to follow blocking.
View Comparison Key
- Reserved B: Elevated side sections with slight angular views - best for seeing full stage pictures
- Floor: Unobstructed straight-on views with perfect depth perception for the thrust stage
- Reserved A: Immersive "actor's eye view" where you'll hear every whisper but may miss some upstage action
Expert Recommendations
- For groups of 4: The Reserved B tickets at $80 are the clear choice - you'll all sit together in the sweet spot of this intimate theater
- For couples: Splurge on the Floor Row K seats - the center positioning creates a perfect shared experience
- VIP seekers: Reserved A Row B delivers Broadway-caliber proximity (these would cost 3x more in New York)
- Note: All seats at the Taper have excellent acoustics - no bad seats for this language-driven production
Theater Layout Pro Tips
The Mark Taper Forum's unique circular design (designed for Shakespeare) means:
• Front rows wrap around 210° of the stage
• No seat is more than 65 feet from the action
