Lena Horne Theatre Venue Information

The Lena Horne Theatre, designed by architect Herbert J. Krapp in a Spanish Revival style, is a New York City landmark both for its facade and auditorium interior. Built by the Chanin Brothers in 1926, the theater features a buff-colored brick stage house and a yellow-beige brick auditorium exterior, with intricate details like Palladian windows and a restored chandelier from its 2000 renovation. Located in Midtown Manhattan’s vibrant Theater District, it is steps away from Times Square and Restaurant Row, making it a prime destination for theatergoers.

The theater has a storied history, having hosted notable productions such as Come Blow Your Horn (1961), Noises Off (1983), Waitress (2016–2020), and the current SIX: The Musical, a Tony Award-winning pop musical. Its intimate size ensures a close connection to the stage, with a seating capacity of 1,069 across two levels: Orchestra and Mezzanine. The venue is not fully wheelchair accessible, but it offers accommodations like a side entrance with no steps, wheelchair-accessible seating in the Orchestra, and a wheelchair-accessible restroom on the Orchestra level. Assistive listening devices, captioning via the GalaPro app, and accommodations for guide dogs are available.

The theater is air-conditioned for year-round comfort, and free WiFi is provided. Concessions, including drinks and snacks, are available at the Mezzanine lobby bar, and merchandise for shows like SIX can be purchased in the lobby. The venue is easily accessible by subway (B, D, F, M, 1, 9, N, Q, R, W trains to 42nd Street) or bus (M20, M104 to 8 Av/W 46th St.). A parking lot is available across the street, and rideshare drop-off/pick-up is designated at West 47th Street.

Lena Horne Theatre Seating Options

The Lena Horne Theatre offers a variety of seating options across its Orchestra, Front Mezzanine, and Rear Mezzanine sections, with additional limited seating in boxes and standing room for select performances. Each section provides a unique perspective of the stage, catering to different preferences and budgets.

Orchestra

The Orchestra section is the largest, with approximately 565–583 seats across three stage-level sections and four elevated boxes on either side. Located closest to the stage, Orchestra seats offer an intimate and immersive experience, ideal for those who want to feel part of the action. Front Orchestra seats (rows AAA–D) are considered premium, providing the closest views, while Center Orchestra seats offer a balanced perspective. Rear Orchestra seats (rows J–Q) are more budget-friendly but still provide clear sightlines, though the Mezzanine overhang may slightly obscure the top of the stage for rows behind J. Double-digit seats on the far sides may have partially obstructed views, particularly for productions with complex sets. Wheelchair-accessible seats are available in the Orchestra without steps.

Front Mezzanine

The Front Mezzanine, with approximately 156–176 seats, is located in the first few rows of the balcony level, accessible via 19 steps from the ground floor. These seats are highly sought after for their elevated yet close proximity to the stage, offering excellent panoramic views. Central seats in the Front Mezzanine are particularly popular for their unobstructed sightlines, making them ideal for shows like SIX, which features a straightforward set design. These seats are often priced comparably to Rear Orchestra but provide a broader perspective of the performance.

Rear Mezzanine

The Rear Mezzanine contains approximately 290 seats and is situated further back in the balcony level, also requiring stairs to access. While farther from the stage, these seats are typically the most affordable and still offer clear sightlines due to the theater’s intimate size. The Rear Mezzanine is ideal for budget-conscious theatergoers who prioritize value while still enjoying a full view of the stage. As with the Front Mezzanine, double-digit seats on the sides may have slightly restricted views.

VIP Packages

The Lena Horne Theatre occasionally offers VIP packages for select performances, depending on the production. These packages may include premium seating in the Front Orchestra or Center Orchestra, exclusive merchandise, priority entry, or access to special events like cast meet-and-greets (when available).
