James Earl Jones Theatre seating chart, Broadway, New York

Orchestra

• 492 seats
• Rows AA-P
  
• The Orchestra seats across three sections: Left, Right, and Center, with aisles in between, extending back 17 rows. It's the priciest area, especially near the front.
• Overall, views are good, though the front rows may feel too close for some. Slightly further back, even the furthest rows still provide an intimate experience.
• Minor obstructions include angled seats at the sides, the Mezzanine overhang after row O, and a shallow rake in the back rows. Legroom is limited, with aisle seats offering the best extra space.
• The section includes seven wheelchair spaces, five aisle transfer seats, and is entirely step-free for all patrons.

Mezzanine

• 275 seats
• Rows A-H

• The Mezzanine, situated above the Orchestra, is divided into three sections with aisles in between, and side boxes seating an additional 12.
• Thanks to its smaller size, views from every row are clear, especially in the Center Mezzanine where seats face directly above the stage.
• Side seats are more angled with restricted views, but a good rake ensures sightlines over the rows in front. The best views are from rows A and B in the Center Mezzanine.
• Legroom is tight, with the best space on aisle seats, though these have slightly restricted views on the far sides. The Mezzanine has three aisle transfer seats but is up two flights of stairs, which may not suit patrons with limited mobility.

Balcony

• 290 seats
• Rows A-H

• The Balcony is situated above the Mezzanine and has seats across Left, Right, and Center sections, plus side Boxes seating about 12 more. It offers the most affordable seating options.
• Thanks to the theatre's smaller size, even the back rows feel relatively close. The best views are in row A, particularly in the Center Balcony.
• However, seats at the far sides and row H have more restricted views, and the Balcony's steepness might not be ideal for those with vertigo.
• Legroom is tight, with aisle seats offering slightly more space. The Balcony is less suitable for those with limited mobility, though it does have three transfer seats.
