more importantly, Welcome to the boards Kirsten!

Thanks for the information Kirsten!

This is a wonderful show. We really enjoyed it and I highly recommend the Candlelight Processional Package. If not, the stanby line can get very long and guests start lining up over an hour early. Many are turned away.

Even if you have tickets for the Candlelight Processional you should arrive early. Seating is on a first come, first seated basis. They open the reserved seating to the general public about 15 minutes before the show starts. Make sure you are in the correct line. When facing the theater, the line to the left is for the reserved seating and the line to the right is for those without the package.

Good tip Michele!
