Broadhurst Theatre (New York). Named after playwright George H. Broadhurst, this wide playhouse with plenty of unobstructed views was designed by Herbert J. Krapp with 1,155 seats and the capability of being used for both plays and musicals. The Broadhurst opened in 1917 with the first American production of Shaw's Misalliance starring Maclyn Arbuckle. Over the years the theatre has been frequently booked, playing to hit dramas, like Victoria Regina (1935) and Amadeus (1980), and musicals, such as Hold Everything (1928) and Grease (1972). The Shubert‐owned playhouse was declared a landmark in 1987.
