I would go to the first show if possible and get there no later than 45 minutes ahead of time...they let you go down by the entrance doors on the left hand side of the theater and then you wait there till they start seating....Alot of guests go sit down close but I would try to sit in the middle section of the upper area....right beind the VIP section.
