Going through this theater is definitely in experience, but you have to be aware of certain nuances. First, it is absolutely stunning. Broadway cannot compare to the majestic beauty and grandeur elegance of this theatre. However, do not go under dressed. We are used to dressing casually in the States, but you will be shocked to see how beautifully people dress at this theater. The makeup, the attire, it's comparable to watching an Oscar's event. Having said that, I did see various individuals dress in jeans, but it's your choice.

Somethin else, and this is most important. They sell seats in louges which are laid out in three rows of three seats each. If you are in the second or third row you will not see the stage! Tickets are expensive, at least a $100 - $150 each, but you will find that most people stand, yes stand, through the hole act! Frustrating is not the word to describe it. Rip off is more like it. We were standing with hundreds of other people watching a barely visible show after paying hundreds of dollars for tickets. Of course when you buy tickets there are no warnings of for obstructed views as you would expect to see during the purchasing process in the States.

So now you know.
