St James Theatre Capacity

The St James Theatre New York has a capacity of 1735 seats. Section capacities are 735 Orchestra, 674 Mezzanine and 326 Balcony. Use our interactive seating chart to view 1502 seat reviews and 1455 photos of views from seat.

The St. James Theatre is a large venue and the perfect place for extravagant and high-octane musicals. Its seating is split across an Orchestra, Mezzanine and Balcony. The Center Mezzanine has panoramic overhead sightlines that don’t feel too close or uncomfortable. Views towards the sides tend to be more partial, and the Balcony in particular can feel very steep and distant. At the very back of the Balcony, patrons may find the sightlines and sound are more obstructed than anywhere else in the theater.

Good value seats

The St. James Theatre has a few options for good value seating. Sitting a bit further back in the Orchestra or Mezzanine can save a price bracket or two whilst keeping a decent view of the stage. Seats towards the inside of the Left and Right Orchestra and Mezzanine are another good choice for keeping your sightline quite direct at a lower price.

Premium seats

The best seats in St. James Theatre are in the Center Orchestra, rows BB-M. Patrons wanting an unrivalled intimate experience should sit as close as possible, but avoid the middle of row A behind the conductor’s box. Row A of the Center Mezzanine also has excellent sweeping views of the stage.

Really great view, but the safety handrail next to this seat does obstruct your view. It didn’t really bother me, though. More
