About This Venue

When architect Herbert J. Krapp built the Ambassador, he was challenged by the fact that there was not enough room for a straight-on theater. Ingeniously, he constructed the theater on a diagonal. The best seats in the house are located in the front mezzanine. The Ambassador has a seating capacity of about 1,108 to 1,155.
