Conquering New York in one visit is impossible. Instead, hit the must-sees – the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art – and then explore off the beaten path with visits to The Cloisters or one of the city’s libraries. Indulge in the bohemian shops of the West Village or the fine dining of the Upper West Side. The bustling marketplace inside of Grand Central Station gives you a literal taste of the best the city has to offer.

The theater was gorgeous the set design was spot on, I felt like I was in Paris! The theater was enveloped in red velvet with chandeliers and a perfect replica of the Moulin rouge in Paris. The show was awesome a fun entertaining cast passionate about what they do. Would recommend!

This is a beautiful theatre, and the production was outstanding. Many stairs to maneuver if you need the restrooms, but that is the norm in NYC. Good staff and helpful ushers.

We saw The Illusionists Magic of the Holidays show and head a great time. The show was filled great magic acts and very funny jokes. It is great for kids and adults. Every illusionist has his own style and completely different acts, which kept this two hour show going by very quickly. The theater has a very good seating configuration, which gives you a great view, no matter where you sit.

The Ethel Barrymore Theatre is the only surviving theatre of the many Lee and J.J. Shubert built for performers who were affiliated with them. Ethel Barrymore was part of the renowned Barrymore acting dynasty, and her tremendous popularity in New York and London society established her as a household name in the US and England. She had achieved stardom under the management of producer Charles Frohman beginning in 1901. In 1928, the Shuberts offered to build her a theatre and commission a play for her to premiere in her namesake house. The Barrymore is the last theatre Lee and J.J. Shubert built. Designed by Herbert Krapp, its exterior was modeled on the design of public baths in Rome, with a two-story terra-cotta grillwork screen. The interior decor combines Elizabethan, Mediterranean, and Adamsesque styles. The most elaborate interior element is the boxes, which feature a sunburst pattern over a columned portico.
A unique theater for its era. While not only historic it is also very pleasant inside. It is located in the middle of the Broadway district and offers some major plays.

The Historic New Amsterdam Theatre opened in 1903 and is currently home to the hit Broadway Musical ALADDIN..
When buying tickets for the production of "Aladdin" musical we did not pay attention to the theatre it was playing in: it was just the fourth (and the last) Broadway show on the "must" list. Well, we were very-very wrong! In addition to the great show we got a chance to admire the beautiful theatre interior, boasting great design and intricate details. The New Amsterdam Theater even has it's own exhibition! Unfortunately we did not have time enough to study all the showcases and items on display but we learned a bit about the theater's history, i.e. we learned that in the past it was home for the famous "Ziegfield Follies" troupe. Hope next time in NYC we' ll allocate more time for the tour of the New Amsterdam Theatre!

An old, iconic theatre located in the heart of the Theatre District, part of the Shubert Organisation. Very small foyer. The stalls area of the seating is wide. There is a balcony and a number of boxes at the side of the auditorium. We saw a matinee of "Beetlejuice" which was superb. If you are a tourist in NY. then a ticket for this show is money well spent.

Wonderful theater right in the heart of the Times Square/Broadway. We saw Waitress and had seats in the front row of the mezzanine. Great views with very comfortable seats. Small enough theater that probably had good sightlines from all seats.

Most of the other theaters make patrons wait outside. This theater is located inside the hotel. While lines were long, it was nice not being outside. The theatre is efficiently run. The seats were comfortable and staggered so viewing was not blocked. We saw Tootsie, which was hilarious! The staging was incredible, set changes were seamless, which enhanced the pace of the play.

I have seen this in the West End in London years ago, and have now fulfilled my dream of seeing it on Broadway in New York !!! What a fantastic experience.....the theatre was small and quaint and, although we were Rear Mezanine ($69), we could still see pretty much most of the show (there was a bit with the chanderlier lifting upwards which we missed, but nothing that crucial to the plot.....I have to say, it was only on Googling the actors afterwards that I realised that none of them were British - their speaking voices/accents were spot on being British and believable. All of the actors' singing was awesome and brought a lump to my throat....but the one that almost made me cry alot was The Phantom - he was so believable and I felt sorry for him with his acting, but this actor's voice was absolutely stunning and he was the best ! I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS SHOW to tick off your Broadway show lists.
