Winter Garden Theatre seat view guide
One of Broadway's widest stages in a house famous for an unusually steep mezzanine rake. That steepness is a gift: even rear mezzanine rows look down at the stage instead of over a sea of heads.
1634 Broadway, New York · approximately 1,526 seats. Section layouts below are approximate, based on public seating charts.
