TicketHold | Folly Theater Seating Chart – Best Seats & Views Guide

Your Complete Guide to Folly Theater Seating & Ticket Options

The historic Folly Theater, a Kansas City landmark since 1900, blends vintage charm with modern acoustics, hosting jazz, Broadway, and comedy events. Its intimate 1,200-seat layout ensures great sightlines, but smart seat selection enhances your experience. Here’s how to navigate the Folly Theater seating chart like a pro.

Folly Theater Seating Breakdown

• Orchestra (Floor): Rows A-F offer close artist interaction but minimal elevation. Rows G-K (mid-orchestra) balance proximity and view.
• Loge (Lower Balcony): Elevated yet close, with wider seats. Center Loge (Sections 1-3) delivers the best sightlines for Broadway shows.
• Balcony: Budget-friendly with steep pitch; avoid side seats (Sections 4-6) for obstructed views of stage corners.

Best Seats by Event Type

• Jazz/Concerts: Orchestra Rows G-J (center) for sound balance.
• Theater: Loge front row (Section 2) for full-stage visibility.
• Comedy: Orchestra sides (Rows C-E) for intimacy.

VIP & Accessibility

• VIP Boxes: Private Loge boxes fit 4-6 guests with lounge access.
• Accessibility: Wheelchair spaces in Orchestra rear and Loge, with companion seating.

Pro Tips

For tall patrons, avoid Balcony front rows (limited legroom). Use the theater’s virtual tour tool to preview your seat view before booking. Early arrivals snag aisle seats in tight rows.
