The Longacre Theatre opened in 1912, named after Longacre Square, now known as Times Square. From 1943, it was leased as a television and radio studio, before returning to its roots in 1953 with Dorothy Parker’s The Ladies of the Corridor. In recent years, the Longacre Theatre has seen a number of successful shows including Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf (2005) and A Bronx Tale (2016).
Henry B. Herts, a frequent collaborator of the Shubert Organization, designed the Longacre Theatre using French Neo-classical styles on the exterior and Beaux Arts influences inside. It was the first Broadway theater he designed alone; previous efforts with Hugh Tallant include the Lyceum Theatre. The auditorium is simple and elegant, using the classic Shubert gold and white color scheme. Between 2007-2008, an expensive restoration project was overseen by architect Michael Kostow. During this time, the theater was updated slightly to improve sightlines and amenities for guests.
Notable productions at the Longacre Theatre include Clark Gable in Hawk Island (1929), Pinter’s No Man’s Land (starring John Gielgud, 1976), Ain’t Misbehaving (1978) and Diana Rigg in Medea (1994). More recently, the venue has hosted Mike Tyson’s one-man show in 2012, and a revival of the award-winning You Can’t Take It With You in 2014.
The Longacre Theatre seating chart comprises 1,077 seats across three levels, with the largest number in the Orchestra. The Orchestra splits into Left, Right and Center, with views best in the middle, a few rows back. The Center Mezzanine layout is perfect for patrons wanting an elevated view, whilst the Balcony provides the most affordable and distant seating, where restrictions caused by safety bars, height and thin pillars can affect sightlines. Boxes are available for side-on, intimate seating, and across all levels seats further to the sides become more obstructed.
