John Golden Theatre seating chart, Broadway, New York

Orchestra

• 465 seats
• Rows A-S
  
  
  
• The Orchestra has up to 12 rows and is very close to the stage. The Center Orchestra is flanked by smaller Left and Right sections, with aisles running along the length and sides.
• The best and most expensive seats are in the front rows of the Center Orchestra, offering unparalleled proximity to the action. Prices are lower at the sides and back, providing good value options.
• The Mezzanine overhang starts at row L, but its impact is minimal, ensuring that even back-row seats offer surprisingly good views. Aisle seats generally have the best legroom, though they might offer a slightly side-on view for some productions.
• Step-free designated seating for wheelchair users and companions is available across the Center Orchestra, with transfer seats also located step-free in rows K to O.

Front Mezzanine

• 110 seats
• Rows A-D

• The Front Mezzanine is a compact section, positioned above the Orchestra and sharing the same balcony as the Rear Mezzanine. It is divided into two blocks by a central aisle, with each block comprising four rows that extend up to 14 seats across.
• Thanks to a good rake, the Front Mezzanine offers excellent overhead views of the stage. Rows A and B are the prime spots, but rows C and D also provide great views.
• Aisle seats offer the best legroom, though the space can feel a bit tight for taller patrons. These seats benefit from additional space without compromising the view.
• The Front Mezzanine includes two transfer seats with folding armrests. However, access involves climbing three flights of stairs and navigating two steps per row, which may be challenging for those with limited mobility.

Rear Mezzanine

• 227 seats
• Rows A-H

• The Rear Mezzanine at the Golden Theatre shares a balcony with the Front Mezzanine and is divided into four blocks with aisles in between. The central blocks are larger, with the entire section spanning about 33 seats at its widest point.
• This section offers some of the best bargains, with the back rows being the most affordable in the Golden Theatre. Thanks to a good rake and the venue’s small size, most seats provide a decent view of the stage.
• While sightlines from the far sides are slightly angled, they do not significantly detract from the overall experience.
• Legroom can be tight, so aisle seats are recommended for those needing extra space. The Rear Mezzanine has two transfer seats, but access involves three flights of stairs and two additional steps per row, making it less suitable for patrons with very limited mobility.
