Book dinner within a short walk, finish 45–60 minutes before curtain, and confirm the restaurant's pace. Prepay or keep the tab open only if you can return quickly.
Pick rows near the middle for balanced sightlines and sound. Avoid seats under deep overhangs, and choose aisles if you expect breaks. Balconies can offer great value with a full-stage view.
Scan sizes pre-show, purchase during intermission with tap-to-pay, and skip the post-show crush. Keep receipts and check for print flaws before leaving.
