The El Capitan Theatre is beautifully restored. I went to see the Jimmy Kimmel Show there and they hand out tickets in front of the theatre. You have to wait for an hour and the gaurds search your pockets and purse. But inside it looks like an old classic theater with a stage set inside a big room. The traffic in the area is murder but the area is really cool. The theatre is located right across from Grauman's Chinese, the Kodak Theatre and the Roosevelt Hotel. So there is plenty to do in the area if you don't like the theatre. But don't worry. You will.
