Broadway Theatre highlights

One of the most impressive aspects of Broadway Theatre is its architectural design. It was originally built to accommodate the orchestra that would accompany silent films, but this large space is used for musical comedies and other productions these days. In fact, the interior is large enough to fit an aircraft.

The array of musicals shown here is impressive. Throughout its history, this theatre has hosted "King Kong," "West Side Story," "Fiddler on the Roof," "Miss Saigon," "Sister Act," and more. The theatre typically changes which production is playing every 2 or 3 years.
