Sections available in New Amsterdam Theatre

New Amsterdam Theatre Orchestra

Orchestra

  • 698 seats
  • Rows A-W

  • Divided into Left, Right, and Center sections with aisles for easy access, the Center Orchestra offers the best views, especially in the middle rows (no obstruction from the Mezzanine overhang which starts at Row P).
  • For a comfortable mid-range option, consider the back-middle of the Center Orchestra – great sightlines and the theatre usually provides booster seats for children.
  • Legroom shines in aisle seats, but keep in mind a potentially obstructed side-on view for patrons seated on the far Left or Right Orchestra aisles during certain productions.
  • Accessibility-wise, designated wheelchair spaces with step-free access are located in the rear Orchestra for patrons and companions. However, other Orchestra sections require navigating steps to reach your seat.
New Amsterdam Theatre Mezzanine

Mezzanine

  • 586 seats
  • Rows AA-QQ

  • Soaring one level above the Orchestra, the Mezzanine is divided into Left, Right, and Center sections with convenient aisles separating them. Box seating is also available on either side, offering a more private experience.
  • Generally, sightlines across the Mezzanine are good. However, similar to many theatres, side seats will have a limited view of the corresponding stage side.
  • Reaching the Mezzanine requires navigating narrow, winding stairs. An elevator is available in the lobby for those who prefer to avoid them. Once seated, legroom can be limited, making aisle seats a popular choice for those seeking more space.
  • There are three designated wheelchair spaces with companion seating in the back rows. The elevator ensures easy access to the entire Mezzanine section.
New Amsterdam Theatre Balcony

Balcony

  • 418 seats
  • Rows A-L

  • Perched highest above the stage, the Balcony offers the most affordable option with seats spread across Left, Right, and Center sections. Due to the significant height, sightlines in the Balcony are more distant compared to other sections.
  • Some structural elements can create partial obstructions. Thin support poles might block the view for patrons in specific seats (like G11 and J10), and the jutting-out Boxes on the far sides can limit sightlines as well. Shorter patrons in the front row (A) might also find their view partially obstructed by the safety railing.
  • The theatre offers booster seats on a first-come, first-served basis to help alleviate some of these limitations for children. The Balcony boasts the least legroom in the theatre, and the steep incline might be uncomfortable for patrons with vertigo or a fear of heights.
  • Additionally, the steep angle can lead to patrons leaning forward, potentially obstructing the view for those seated behind. Unfortunately, the Balcony is not equipped for wheelchair seating or accessible for patrons with limited mobility.

Value for money seats

  • Center Mezzanine (C-F): These middle rows in the Center Mezzanine offer a decent overall perspective of the stage at a more attractive price compared to front-row seats. The Mezzanine overhang might slightly obstruct the view in some of the very back rows (Row F).
  • Center Orchestra (F-O): Enjoy a clear view of the stage without breaking the bank in the Center Orchestra. These back-middle sections offer a budget-friendly option compared to the premium front-row seats. 
  • Balcony: Row A of the Center Balcony is a reasonable choice for budget-conscious viewers. Despite being quite high and feeling distant, it still offers a clear view of the stage.

Best views of the stage

  • Center Orchestra (D-K): Offering an unobstructed, close-up view of the entire stage, these are some of the most coveted seats in the house. Perfect for appreciating intricate details of the performance.
  • Center Mezzanine (A-D): For a slightly elevated perspective with excellent sightlines, choose the Center Mezzanine. These front and middle rows avoid any potential obstruction from the balcony overhang while still offering a clear view of the stage.
  • Balcony: Seats scattered across rows A-C will provide you with good views.

Accessible seating in New Amsterdam Theatre

  • Orchestra: Fully accessible with step-free entry from the main lobby. Most rows require navigating one step up, except for designated wheelchair and companion seating in the back (Rows T-V) which are entirely step-free.
  • Mezzanine: Accessible by stairs (two flights from the lobby) or an elevator. However, there might be a few steps up or down to reach individual rows within the Mezzanine. Three designated wheelchair spaces with companion seating are located in the back Right Mezzanine (Row LL) and are completely step-free upon reaching the Mezzanine level via the elevator. There are no transfer seats in this section.
  • Balcony: Least accessible option. Located one level above the Mezzanine, it requires navigating stairs that can be steep. The floor's incline might be challenging for some patrons. While an elevator reaches the Balcony level, the Orchestra and Mezzanine offer a significantly better experience for those with limited mobility. This section lacks any wheelchair or accessible seating.
