Over the years, many of Broadway's 40 theaters have gone through name changes. The Al Hirschfeld Theatre, where Kinky Boots currently plays, wasn't always named for the legendary caricaturist. Similarly, the August Wilson Theatre, the longtime home of Jersey Boys, didn't always take its title from the late playwright of Fences and Joe Turner's Come and Gone. Just today, off-Broadway's American Theatre of Actors renamed their venue to honor stage great John Cullum. Take our quiz and find out how many of the names of theaters you can remember.
