Fred Kavli Theatre Seating Chart

Fred Kavli Theatre Seating Chart

Fred Kavli Theatre has plenty of seating for 1,800 spectators across several seating sections. Ground-level orchestra seating is the easiest to access, but the theatre is fully accessible for wheelchairs and persons with mobility issues and disabilities.

Standard seating is theatre-style seating with flip-down seats constructed with sturdy cushioning for all guests. 

Whether it’s an up-close view of the stage, a sweeping perspective from above, or an exclusive box with added privacy, you have options at the Fred Kavli. 

Here’s how the seating breaks down:

Orchestra level – front and center

Orchestra seating puts you right in the action. It’s closest to the stage and promises clear sightlines, rich acoustics, and a fully immersive experience. This is the go-to choice for those who want to see every detail up close. 733 seats, including 10 wheelchair-accessible spaces, span across left, right, and center sections.

Best for: Broadway fans, music lovers, and anyone who wants the full stage experience.

Founders Circle and Boxes – prime vantage point

Sitting just above the Orchestra, the Founders Circle delivers an elevated, unobstructed view of the performance. With 191 seats, including 4 wheelchair-accessible spots, this section balances proximity with a wider stage perspective.

For a more private and exclusive experience, Founders Boxes offer premium seating with an intimate feel. Space is very limited though, so you’ll need to book well in advance, especially for popular shows. 

Best for: Guests looking for a balance of proximity and visibility, plus a more elevated perspective.

Mezzanine – elevated views

Sitting above the Founders Circle, the Mezzanine provides a full view of the stage. This zone is perfect for seeing larger productions in full scope. 414 seats, including 10 wheelchair-accessible spaces, make this a solid choice for those who want a great perspective without being too far from the action.

Mezzanine Boxes flank the main seating area and offer a semi-private option with unique sightlines from the sides.

Best for: Theatergoers who want to take in the whole production with a perfect mix of height and distance.

Balcony – panoramic and budget-friendly

The highest seating tier, the Balcony unlocks a full-stage view from above. While further back, it’s an excellent option for large productions, concerts, and budget-conscious guests. 390 seats, including 6 wheelchair-accessible spaces, make up this section.

Best for: Fans who want a sweeping view of the entire stage without the premium price tag.

Accessible seating

Wheelchair-accessible seating is available across multiple levels, including Orchestra, Founders Circle, Mezzanine, and Balcony. Designed for comfort and convenience, these spaces ensure all guests have a great experience.
