A relatively recent addition to the Broadway scene, the Marquis Theatre finds its home on the third floor of the impressive Marriott Marquis Hotel on West 46th Street.

Developer John Portman was tasked with integrating a new venue into his designs when the Marriott Marquis was constructed on the site of several razed theatres. Featuring high ceilings, contemporary acoustics, comfortable seating, and additional restrooms, the Marquis Theatre stands as a thoroughly modern contribution to the Broadway landscape.

Sections available in Marquis Theatre

Orchestra

1052 seats
Rows AA-Z

Orchestra is the largest seating area with seats divided into Left, Right, and Center sections by stepped aisles. There are ten wheelchair and twelve transfer seats, with adjacent companion seats available. Note that transfer seats are not entirely step-free.
The Mezzanine overhang starts at row M, causing a potential cut-off at the top of the stage for seats beyond this point. The best views are in the front rows of the Center Orchestra (C-H), where prices are highest.
Seats further back feel more distant, and those on the far sides are the most restricted. Overall, the Orchestra offers comfortable seating with better legroom on the aisle. However, views at the far sides and back corners are more restricted, reflected in the pricing.

The newer design offers comfortable seating, though legroom in the middle of rows can be tight. Views are generally good, though seats on the far sides and at the back are less desirable due to restricted angles and distance.
