About This Venue

This charming Broadway theater has a wonderful quality of being huge, but without a barnlike atmosphere. Built in 1913, the theater was used as a radio and television playhouse. Regular theatrical performances started in 1953. The sightlines are excellent as well as the view from the balcony. The Longacre has a seating capacity of 1,080 to 1,096.
