Sort of an old fashion style theatre. The architecture is very elegant and not at all to busy. I don't believe that there's a bad seat in the house either.

What a beautiful theater! There's not a seat in the house that sucks, and there's not an inch of the interior that wasn't made beautiful. I particularly like the layout of the bathrooms downstairs that lends itself to rotating women (notoriously slow in public restrooms) in and out quickly. And NoVember was hilarious, so that helped.

Bathrooms are lovely and spacious! The front row is nice, the stage is low enough so that the view is clear (and we can see feet). I gave it 5 stars because I especially loved Company, the Broadway musical I saw there.

Watch your knees as you crouch into the seats in the orchestra.  They may get a little cramped before you trek downstairs (two flights) for a trip to the bathroom -- at least they are fairly nice!  The lower lounge is comfy for a before show or intermission drink.  SMALL lobby - don't plan to meet your friends there.

Look for the architectural details around the joint - old Broadway folks, old Broadway at some of its best.
