Description
Beyond its primary schedule, the National Historic Landmark stages work through the Independence Studio on 3 series and dedicated WST for Kids programming. The 1,000-seat auditorium features remodeled, wider seating and crisp acoustics throughout. Sightlines differ across levels—lower-center mezzanine seats often yield clearer views than side spots on the main floor, where aisle spaces run tight for visitors navigating mobility devices.
