New Amsterdam Theatre on Broadway
Guide • Seating Plan • Current Shows
The New Amsterdam Theatre is one of the most famous and, for me personally, most beautiful Broadway theaters in New York. It opened in 1903 with Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream but had to close in 1985. It was only twelve years later that it was lovingly restored and reopened by Disney Theatrical Productions. From then on, it became the theater for Disney productions. The Lion King was the first Disney production performed here (which is now performing in the Minskoff Theatre). Today, Aladdin is performed at this theater.
What we find particularly beautiful is the auditorium, designed with great attention to detail; the walls and ceilings are richly decorated, the colors are coherent, and everything wonderfully takes you back to the early years of the theater.

Where Are the Best Seats at New Amsterdam Theatre Located?
The breath-taking musical Aladdin can be seen in the New Amsterdam Theater on Broadway, a location which was opened in 1903 and has retained the charm and ambiance as one of the oldest theaters in New York City from that time. Therefore, the New Amsterdam Theater visit makes seeing Aladdin on Broadway an even more unique experience. The theater is located on 214 West 42nd Street. Here you can see the different seating categories and areas in the New Amsterdam Theatre.
We recommend sitting in either the “Orchestra” or “Front Mezzanine” sections. In these sections, you will get the most value for your money and have a full view of the stage. We recommend booking a ticket for a showing during the week, the prices are much cheaper than those for weekend showings.
Address: 214 W 42nd St (between 7th and 8th Avenue).
