   2a: a small partitioned area b: a separate forward section of a theater mezzanine or balcony c: a raised section or level of seats in a sports stadium

Quotation:

A new presidential box needed to be built, complete with wet bar and air-conditioning, and the loge section had to be redone for the arriving dignitaries.

- from an article in The New York Times

Eymology: French, from Old French, a shelter

Not being an active theater-goer I didn’t recognize this label on the stairway as we ascended to our seats at the Spoon concert in Durham the other week.
