Beautiful theater. Drinks are highway robbery though. $10 for an 8oz Coke. $5 for a 16oz water. I assume they have an operating room in the back in case you order alcohol.

Great play #comefromaway, but with this guy sitting in front of me, no view. Paid for premium seats and so far theater hasn't responded!! #fail

Tip for folks who work here: if you're in harmony with my favorite people who work here, keep on keepin' on. If not, change your ways or leave my friends alone.

It's great! Obviously, coming here would depend on whether you were interested in the show that's running at the time, but it's a nice place.

Surprisingly roomy seats. Beware of far left/right orch seats - the boxes hang pretty low and block a lot of the view.

Saw "Orphans" here and the theater is very small and cozy. We were in the third row from the back, and also in the corner - still an amazing seat.

Come From Away is absolutely unmissable. So much heart, tempered with a lot of humor.

Seats in the orchestra are plenty wide. Smaller theatre so all the seats are a good view

A good show, but the seats on the wings have restricted viewing - avoid at all costs

Small seating, excellent play

Tip for actors: don't linger after the show. Security and whoever's on stagedoor need to go home. The biggest offenders seem to be the biggest stars, who have other places they can do to socialize.

Beautiful theatre and the upper level is still very good seats.

Come From Away is a must see!

Great house. Good seating.

Thank you, Mr. Al Pacino, for excellent performance in

The security was being rude to customers and forcing them to wait in the freezing cold. Other than that, decent theater. You can buy potato chips for $5. I saw a play with Al Pacino here once.

seats are not super comfortable and could use more leg room

This is a theatre not a grocery. A bottle of water goes for $6.

Nice theater, but the ushers are rude. Being yelled at as you walk in the door isn't a great start to a performance.

Tip for customers: actually turn your goddamn phone off. Why do you need it on? If you're not gonna turn it off, keep it in your lap so that when it rings, you can turn it off immediately.

O no! A political campaign....Toto.... HOME! Er-wait a minute... This IS home... Except the water costs $5 here... Nope- must be NYC. TOTO.....

Want a snack or beverage? Bar in the basement. Past the bathroom line. Get those peanut m & ms.
Allison KasicJanuary 20, 2015
Pretty small theater so most of the seats are good.
Steven MeyersApril 12, 2016
Hard to enjoy the show when your knees cant fit into the leg space. I left that show in physical pain

Bring blankets and gloves: This is not a theatre but a fridge. The AC is ruining the expirience completely.
Silvia BonitaMarch 27, 2014
Same day tickets are cheap, $37 if you but them at the theater at 10am.

Hugh Jackman and Chris Rock have both called this theater home in the last few years.

Bring your own ice. Your not allowed to have ice in your drink. Apparently it clinks in your plastic glass. Bs

Seats are definitely not fat friendly LOL...

14 beans for a scredriver...ouch.

Bring coats and blankets: The air condition is an ice cold torture. Even for American standards the temperature is not acceptable and ruins the experience.
