Previously the Cort Theatre, it’s now the only surviving and still active theatre on Broadway designed by architect Thomas Lamb. It reopened in 2022 after an extensive renovation of the existing theatre and an addition of a five-story, 20,000 square foot annex, providing better circulation between floors with elevators, generous lobby space, accessible restrooms, new dressing rooms space, and a rehearsal room. Schuler Shook provided architectural lighting and lighting control for both spaces.
