Ambassador Theatre Layout Tips

The intimate 1,100-seat venue means there are no truly bad seats, but note:

• Right side (house right) has slightly better views for Chicago's staging
• Orchestra seats beyond Row P may feel distant in this narrow theater
• Mezzanine overhang begins at Row K in orchestra - avoid for tall patrons
• Front Mezzanine Row A has safety rail that may slightly obstruct views
