The atmosphere is as close to an old-time movie theater as you can get – which means the seats are a bit cramped but each one has a great view!

Sat in the last row mezzanine (seat 102) for Dear Evan Hansen but my view was perfect! Great stage door experience afterwards as well (staff were great).

My favorite seats in the house are any in Row O in the orch. The seats are a bit elevated and provide an unobstructed sightline. You won't worry about the person in front of you blocking your view.

Saving Evan Hansen is incredible. This theatre is also smaller than London West End ones so you still have a great view from seats further back.

#dearevanhansen older theatre but quite happy with locale--on aisle and last row but no one behind me

I saw Pippin at this theater and sat in Row L and had a great view. The theatre has an intimate atmosphere since it's a bit older. Seats and rows are a bit cramped so I hope you're not super tall.

Such a cute theater. Saw shuffle along there and the staff were so nice in getting us good seats from standing room

Coat check available in lower level for a small fee. Large restrooms on lower level. Smaller restrooms on Mezzanine level.

Pippin is currently put on here. Baseline choreography is very Fosse-esque but this production is somewhat modernized. They involve audience from time to time. A lot of fun.

Front of mezz is worth it if you can get a discount ticket. But it's overall a nice small house.

One of the smallest Broadway theaters, try to get a box seat if you can, they are the most unique on all of Broadway. Humphrey Bogart once graced this very stage!
HISTORYApril 13, 2010
This theatre was built in 1921 by Irving Berlin & Sam Harris. Its longest running play was Deathtrap in 1978 in which actress Merian Seldes never missed one of the 1,609 performances.

First row mezzanine seats are FANTASTIC! And make sure you catch Pippin. The greatest show I've seen on Broadway yet. Patina Miller is FABULOUS.

A fine old house with terrific seating in the mezzanine for full view of the stage.

Dear Evan Hansen was great!

Theater is a good intimate space! "Shuffle along" needs some work as a production.

dear evan hansen we’ve been way too out of touch. life has been crazy and it sucks that we don’t talk that much.

Even the last row if the mezz is a great seat. Small, lovely theatre.

Pippin is breathtaking! Definitely worth the trip in!

Pippin is not to be confused with Peregrin Took, son of Paladin, from The Lord of the Rings.

The only bar is in basement. They also don't stock any ice for your drinks. (boooooo!)
