Shows · Phoenix Theatre

This is a New York theatre. The address is Manhattan and the former names are Broadway names, but the record is filed as West End and its coordinates, architect and history were taken from the London theatre of the same name. Every one of these names exists on both streets. Reported to broadway-data as issue #97.

What this page does not know

  • Anything about the building itself. The capacity, architect, coordinates and history on this record belong to a different theatre of the same name, so none of them are shown. The productions below are still this theatre's.
  • What played here before Broadway record-keeping starts, and what played here outside it — concerts, benefits, film runs, anything that was not a listed production.
  • How long 1 of these run lasted. No performance count on the record.
