Broadway's popular Romeo and Juliet revival is scheduled to continue performances through February 16, 2025, and Playbill has got you covered with tips to get the best seats in the house when you catch the show. We've scoured online forums for the inside scoop from past attendees of the Circle in the Square Theatre, so you're prepared to pick the perfect seat in fair Verona.

For this production, The Circle in the Square has a seating capacity of 794 (a tad higher than typical). That's because Romeo + Juliet is staged in the round, amphitheatre style—with audience members on all four sides of the action looking down onto the stage. With this seating plan, no large or obstructive set pieces, and actors moving throughout the theatre, there really isn't a bad seat in the house. 

The theatre is divided into four sections, with seats numbered in the 100s, 200s (with even-numbered 200s on one side of the stage and odd-numbered 200s on the opposite side of the stage), and 400s. 

There are also floor seats right up close to the stage, which are labeled FA (though you will have to crane your neck to see the balcony scene, any scenes that involve actors running up and down the aisles, or any scene in the catwalk above the stage). 

If you want to have a great sight line for the fan-favorite balcony scenes (with the pull-up), shoot for the upper rows of the theatre, and for seats in the 200s and 400s section. One attendee also noted that Romeo paces up and down the stairs of an aisle during a monologue—when looking at the production's Telecharge seat map, this aisle is the upper right one, between the 100s and odd-numbered 200s sections. Other theatregoers mentioned that plenty of cast members run up and down the stairs throughout the show, so any aisle seat offers a fair chance at being immersed in the action.

Inner aisle seats in the 100s section (A101 and A102, B101 and B102, and so on) and 400s section (A401 and A402, B401 and B402, and so on) are not actually on an aisle; they are located next to a small platform. Attendees noted platforms may obstruct the central stage just a bit, but the trade-off is that some scenes take place on those two platforms, providing an extra-close view. Note: Those sitting in the 100s will be next to a very-important-to-the-plot giant teddy bear while those sitting in the 400s will be next to a DJ booth.

Finally, if you want to get to the stage door quickly for Playbill autographs from the stars, the 100s section provides the most convenient exit because it's right next to the exit doors to the lobby.
