What this page does not know

  • 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.
  • When 1 of these run ended. They carry an opening date and no closing date, and they are old enough that they certainly closed — nobody wrote down the date.
  • How many seats.
  • Who built it.
