And the Music Box! I love that theatre and can't wait for something else to play in there!

The Music Box
It still has its original name, named for Irving Berlin's Music Box Revues. It was intentionally made small in order to accomodate intimate musicals that favored good writing over spectacle. It saw premieres of musicals by the Gershwins, Rodgers and Hart and Noel Coward. Its decor is warm and pretty.

I love the Marquis i don't know why.
Love the Music Box because of the decor and pretty much the whole Berlin thing. (They should NEVER rename it)
I loved The Lunt-Fountaine during Titanic. The Beautiful blue walls. When i saw the brown walls for BATB i almost cried.

Posted: 8/27/06 at 1:31amI like the Gershwin and the Shubert, but I really love the way everything's decorated at the Circle in the Square. It makes me feel like I'm in middle school again, and it's so intimate/close, I love it.

I love the Gershwin, mainly because if the seats are raised more than any other theater.
Also:
Lunt- Fontanne
Al Hirschfeld
Neil Simon

I liked the Lunt-Fontanne theater.
This isn't in NYC, but I loved the architecture inside the Opera House in Boston.

Probably a tie between the Gershwin and Lunt-Fontanne.
Least favorite probably Richard Rogers, the seat were uncomfortable and the mezzanine was really steep

The Shubert and New Amsterdam.
There is so much history about each theater, its astonishing.
#23re: Your Favorite Broadway Theater
Posted: 8/27/06 at 12:36pmI love the grandeur of the Palace, but I love the facade of the Al Hirschfeld.

The Gershwin. It's the only theatre in New York with legroom.
