Hello rebbeca- We did it last year and we loved it. If any one in your group has a birthday in the same month you are going, they can get in for free with another paying person. Tickets aren't cheap, probably around 35.00 adult and 24.00 for kids, I'm just not sure. Get there early. For the 8:00pm show we got there at 6:30. You get a colored ticket when they let you in to the great hall, It's seems like a tourist trap to get you to part with more money(we did). You'll see a group of steps and a velvet rope on the top step. Plant your group there. Leave in shifts if you must. The hall packs up quickly, elbow room only. when it's time to go in they call you by groups(your colored ticket is your group). When your color is called you'll be among the first in your group let in, this will put you in the second row. People pay extra for the first row, but you will be one row behind for a lower price. The wait staff (wenches) work for tips, if you or your family like a certain food or dislike something they will be happy to get you whatever you want. Including refills of drinks and desserts. Just ask.
