Women are allowed in the main area of synagogues. However, during the prayer services in Orthodox synagogues, men and women sit separately. The reason for this is so that people aren't distracted while praying.

In which area(s) of a Byzantine church were women such as Empress Theodora allowed?

In Byzantine churches, women, including Empress Theodora, were typically allowed in the narthex and sometimes in the side aisles.
