Chicago, although the original opened when it was still the 46th Street Theatre.
And, not the same thing, but both the Tyne Daly and Patti LuPone Gypsys played the St. James.

How to Succeed in 1961 and 1995 played the 46th Street/Richard Rodgers.
Revivals of Private Lives played the 46th Street/Richard Rodgers in 1975 and 2002.
The original Finian's Rainbow and the 1960 revival both played the 46th Street.
The original Cabaret opened at the Broadhurst and moved to the Imperial and the 1987 revival opened at the Imperial.

Streetcar at the Barrymore in 1947 and 1992.
And speaking of Private Lives, it also played the Broadhurst in 1970 (as a transfer) and in 1992.
