Description

Constructed in 1923 by the Shubert Organization as a replacement for an older Lyric Theatre, this historic Broadway playhouse was designed by Herbert Krapp in a trademark Adam-style. The interior features a recessed ceiling and walls decorated with elaborate floral and geometric motifs. Its rectangular auditorium is wider than it is deep, placing most audience members in close proximity to the performers.
