Named the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre in 2005 after the legendary chairman of the Shubert Organization, the theatre was originally built as the Plymouth in 1917.
Designed by architect Herbert J. Krapp, the theatre was built to subtly reflect the more ornate Shubert and Booth Theatre, featuring simple decor in shades of brown, blue, and gold.
The Shuberts leased their new theatre to the distinguished producer/director Arthur Hopkins and in 1917, the theatre opened with a production of A Successful Calamity.
Throughout its history, the theatre has featured performances from famed actors including Helen Mirren (The Audience), Al Pacino (China Doll), Hugh Jackman (A Steady Rain), and many more.
In addition, the theatre has been the home of many hits including The Humans, A Chorus Line, and more
The Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre remains one of Broadway’s most sought-after theatres for dramas and modest-sized musicals.
