Ethel Barrymore Theatre (Closed Temporarily)

(8 Ratings)
Broadway Theatre and recent home to The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Race, Exit the King, and The Tale of the Allergist's Wife
The Ethel Barrymore Theatre is the only surviving theatre of the many Lee and J.J. Shubert built for performers who were affiliated with them. Ethel Barrymore was part of the renowned Barrymore acting dynasty, and her tremendous popularity in New York and London society established her as a household name in the US and England. She had achieved stardom under the management of producer Charles Frohman beginning in 1901. In 1928, the Shuberts offered to build her a theatre and commission a play for her to premiere in her namesake house.
