The show is driven by a hit-filled pop score featuring songs written by Max Martin, including well-known tracks like “Since U Been Gone,” “Roar,” and “Baby One More Time.”

Today, & Juliet continues to be one of Broadway’s most energetic and in-demand shows, attracting a wide audience with its upbeat tone, modern storytelling, and concert-style atmosphere.

Find Your Seat: Theater Sections Guide

Stephen Sondheim Theatre

Located at 124 West 43rd Street, the Stephen Sondheim Theatre blends historic character with modern design. Originally opened in 1918 as Henry Miller’s Theatre, it was rebuilt and reopened in 2009 with a unique underground auditorium while preserving its original facade. Renamed in 2010 in honor of legendary composer Stephen Sondheim, it is also recognized as Broadway’s first LEED-certified green theater. With around 1,000 seats and a compact layout, it offers an intimate setting that currently hosts & Juliet.

When choosing seats, the theater’s steep, stadium-style design means most sections offer clear views. Premium Center Orchestra seats provide the closest and most immersive experience, placing you right in front of the action. However, many theatergoers prefer the front rows of the Mezzanine, which offer a slightly elevated, balanced view of the full stage—ideal for taking in the show’s choreography and lighting.

For a more budget-friendly option, rear Orchestra and mid-to-rear Mezzanine seats still provide solid sightlines thanks to the theater’s layout. While seats further back are naturally more distant, the space is designed to minimize obstructions and maintain strong acoustics throughout. Overall, the Stephen Sondheim Theatre offers a well-rounded viewing experience, with very few poor seats in the house.
