Vivian Beaumont Theater
After management reorganization, the Lincoln Center Theater was established in 1985 under the direction of Gregory Mosher and Bernard Gersten. In 1992, André Bishop succeeded Gregory Mosher as artistic director. Together, they helped to elevate the venue into the theater it is today.
Not only is the Lincoln Center Theater home of the Vivian Beaumont, it also houses the 299-seat Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater and the 112-seat Claire Tow Theater.
