I've only been in two, but I liked the Imperial.

The Music Box.
oh, I just love it!

The Eugene O'Neill. Maybe because I love Eugene O'Neill.
"We don't value the lily less for not being made of flint and built to last. Life's bounty is in it's flow, later is too late. Where is the song when it's been sung, the dance when it's been danced? It's only we humans who want to own the future too."
- Tom Stoppard, Shipwreck

I loved the Eugene O'Neil.
I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

Well, I haven't been in many but I like the Nederlander.
"I wrote a book: "How to Be Popular". Now I've put together a top ten list of how to help you:
-Elphie, everyday... shower. I mean, who knows? Maybe some of that green is gonna come off!
-Deodorant Elphie. No body likes a stinky witch!
-I think we've covered the hair, we'll get to that.
-Clean underclothes. That's all I'm gonna say.
-Look at your posture. That's no way to be popular!
-Bed made, room straightened. We've done that.
-Colors blended. Oookay.
-But the most important thing to have, to make yourself popular, is to keep your beautiful smile."
~Kristin Chenoweth in her last performance of the song "Popular"

Gershwin (less cramped than other theatres)
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.

I 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.

I 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.
