💰 Best Value Tickets (Under $180)
- Mezzanine Rows K-H: Excellent elevated views ($162-$164). Row H is particularly good with minimal obstruction.
- Box Seats (A): Unique angled perspective at $167-$178. Left box has slightly better Pride Rock visibility.

- Mezzanine Rows G-A: ($182-$200) Front mezzanine offers the best balance of price and view depth for the puppetry.
- Orchestra Rear (ZZ-YY): ($183-$197) Good value for orchestra seating. Center YY rows provide perfect sightlines to overhead effects.
- Orchestra Sides (W-X): ($191-$192) Minimal side obstruction with closer proximity to aisle entrances.
✨ Premium Tier Options ($220-$300)
- Orchestra Center (T-YY): ($223-$262) Exceptional views with Row T being prime for facial expressions.
- Front Mezzanine (C-E): ($238-$259) Best mezzanine seats for seeing detailed costumes.
- Orchestra Front (A-B): ($262-$273) Ultimate proximity but may require some neck movement for overhead elements.
🎭 View Considerations
