Who Designed and Built New World Stages?
Originally starting its life as a cinema complex in 1989, the building was transformed into a five off-Broadway stage venue in 2002. Substantial renovations by Dodger Stage Holding Theatricals took place to create a modern, flexible space for commerical plays and entertainment to take place, before it reopened under the name Dodger Stages in 2004. Architects Beyer Blinder Belle, whose work includes the New York Public Library, were involved alongside theatre designers Sachs Morgan and interior designer Klara Zieglerova.
The theatre was renamed New World Stages in 2006 when Stage Entertainment took sole ownership of the venue. However, since 2014, it has been owned and operated by The Shubert Organisation.
