• Suffs

  Following a sold-out, extended run at The Public Theater, Suffs arrives on Broadway — and not a moment too soon. From the singular mind of Shaina Taub, this “remarkable, epic new musical” (Variety), boldly explores the victories and failures of a struggle for equality that’s far from over.

• The Picture of Dorian Gray

  This ground-breaking production – adapted and directed by multi award-winning Kip Williams during his tenure as Artistic Director at the acclaimed Sydney Theatre Company – delivers an explosive interplay of live performance and video in an astonishing collision of form.

The Music Box Theatre was constructed because of an offer Sam H. Harris, a well-known producer, made to his friend Irving Berlin in 1919.  Harris proposed that if the songwriter would create a musical revue, he would find a venue for it.  Berlin wrote The Music Box Revue and the Music Box was constructed to house the show in 1920.  For each of the next four years, Berlin wrote a completely new version of the show.  Designed by Charles Howard Crane and E. George Kiehler, the theatre has delicate, jewel-like qualities.  It was constructed in the Neo-Georgian style, more in the style of a country home than a standard theatrical style.  In the 1920s, the Shuberts began obtaining shares of the theatre from Harris.  In 1941, Harris died and his wife sold half the shares in the theatre to the Shuberts, and half to Berlin.  Berlin and Shubert obtained equal ownership of the theatre from that point on.  Berlin sold his share of the theatre to the Shuberts in 2007.
