Now, we have answered some of your more pressing questions with our handy Studio 54 seating chart guide:

Which Seats Offer The Best View?


Given its relatively small size, most of the seats in Studio 54 offer a good view of the stage. Still, there are some seats that are more in demand than others and offer a better view. These would be the middle seats in the first couple of rows (A-D) of the orchestra section. The seats in this section are closest to the stage and offer an unobstructed view with amazing sound quality.

The front few rows of the mezzanine section are also some of the most popular seats in the theater. This is primarily because of the elevation that seats in this section experience. The elevation provides a better look at the stage and there’s no issue of a block view by someone tall sitting in front. The price for both the premium orchestra and front mezzanine sections are around the same, so you can take your pick depending on how much you like heights.

Which Seats/Section Offer the Best Value for Money?


It goes without saying but the seats offering the best view of the theatre are typically the most expensive too. And since not everyone can afford to spend more than $150 on one Broadway ticket, there’s an increased demand for value for money seats.

The middle pack of rows in the orchestra section (E-K) offer a consistently good look at the stage while being priced considerably lesser than the premium orchestra seats. Similarly, the front couple of rows in the rear mezzanine section (EE-GG) provide a good look at the stage without costing as much as the premium mezzanine seats.

The middle mezzanine rows, CC and DD, can also be categorized as value for money since they aren’t too expensive and offer a good look at the stage.
