The Gershwin was designed byRalph Alswang.It was one of the first theaters constructed under the Special Theater District amendment of 1967. The theater's main entrances are from a midblock passageway that runs between50thand 51st Streets. There are escalators leading from the ground floor to the second-story lobby and rotundas. TheAmerican Theater Hall of Fame,which contains inscriptions of the names of over 500 notable theatrical personalities, is placed within the lobby and rotundas. The Gershwin's orchestra level, which has about 1,300 seats, is more than double the size of the mezzanine level, which has about 600 seats.

TheUris Buildings Corporationbuilt the theater within the Uris Building, now Paramount Plaza, in the 1960s in exchange for several additional floors of office space. The Uris opened on November 28, 1972, with a performance of the musicalVia Galactica.Following severalflops,the theater was rented out for concerts and dance specials in the 1970s. The musicalsThe King and IandSweeney Todd(now revived at theLunt Fontanne Theatre,and currently on tour in 2025) had relatively long runs at the end of the decade. The theater was renamed the Gershwin during the37th Tony Awardsin 1983, the first of sixTony Awardsceremonies to be hosted there. In the 1980s, the theater hosted concerts; its firststraight plays;and musicals such asSingin' in the RainandStarlight Express.The theater continued to host concert appearances in the early 1990s, as well as musicals such asShow Boat,and was renovated in 1993. The Gershwin has been home to the musicalWickedsince 2003.

Description

edit

The Gershwin Theatre is on the second floor ofParamount Plaza,also known as 1633Broadway,north ofTimes Squarein theMidtown Manhattanneighborhood ofNew York City.[1]Ralph Alswangdesigned the theater, which opened in 1972 as the Uris Theatre,[2][3]whileEmery Roth and Sonsdesigned Paramount Plaza.[4]It is one of two theaters in Paramount Plaza; the other is theCircle in the Square Theatrein the building's basement.[5][6]The Gershwin, Circle in the Square,Minskoff,andAmerican Placetheaters were all constructed under the Special Theater District amendment of 1967 as a way to give their respective developers additional floor area.[7]

The Gershwin was decorated in what Alswang described as anArt Nouveaustyle.[2][8]The theater covers 50,000 sq ft (4,600 m2) and has bronzevelourdecorations throughout its major public spaces.[9]Originally decorated in white and gold, the Gershwin was redecorated in a blue-and-white color scheme in 1993.[10]The theater is operated by theNederlander Organization.[11][12]

Lobbies and Hall of Fame

edit

At the base of Paramount Plaza is a promenade that connects50thand51st Streets,providing entry to the Gershwin and Circle in the Square theaters.[7][13]There aremarqueesfor the theaters' entrances on both 50th and 51st Streets.[9]Thebox officeis at ground level.[14]Escalators lead from the ground floor to the Gershwin Theater.[2][15][14]The names of 90 celebrities who were active between 1860 and 1930 are inscribed in bronze-gold lettering along the escalators.[15]

The second floor contains theAmerican Theater Hall of Fame,where the names of notable theatrical personalities are inscribed in gold letters.[15][16]Eligible inductees have had a career in American theater for at least 25 years and at least five major Broadway production credits.[17][18]The lobby contains a white wall behind the orchestra seats and measures 220 ft (67 m) wide.[9]The Hall of Fame's names stretch across the four-story-high wall of the lobby.[16]The theater also has two rotundas, one of which originally contained the music and theater collections of theMuseum of the City of New York.[9][14]The hall's names stretch into the rotundas.[14][19]

Auditorium

edit

Playbillcites the theater as having 1,926 seats,[11]whileThe Broadway Leaguegives a figure of 1,933 seats.[12][20]The Gershwin's seats are spread across two levels: an orchestra with about 1,300 seats and a smaller mezzanine with about 600 seats.[2][21][b]This was based on Alswang's observation that most people wanted orchestra seats.[2][8]The seats in the Gershwin are spaced 36 in (910 mm) apart from row to row, compared to in older theaters where each row was only 32 to 33 in (810 to 840 mm) apart.[7][22]The balcony has 14 rows.[22]Like traditional Broadway houses (and unlike the contemporary Minskoff Theatre), the theater had aisles in the center and along the sides.[22][21]The orchestra level isADA-accessiblevia an elevator from the ground story.[11][23]

The mezzanine level has protrusions on the side walls instead ofboxseats. Theprosceniumarch is designed with light bars, which could be removed if necessary.[2]The wall panels also contains panels that can be removed for the installation of speakers.[22]The stage was also designed with a flexible layout in that it could be disassembled or extended forward.[2][22]When the stage was extended forward, it basically functioned as athrust stage,covering theorchestra pit.[21][22]With a 65 ft-wide (20 m) adjustableproscenium archand an 80 ft-wide (24 m) stage, it is one of the largest Broadway stages, ideal for very large musical productions.[24]

Unlike older theaters in New York City, the Minskoff and Gershwin theaters were subject to less stringent building codes. For example, the Gershwin was designed without fire curtains, since the city had allowed sprinkler systems to be installed in both theaters.[22]The theater also used Hydra-Float, a computerized rigging system.[2][8][25]This made it the first commercial theater in the U.S. to be completely automated.[21][25]Backstage, there were eight large dressing suites for lead performers, which were equipped with air conditioning, green rooms, and private bathrooms.[26]

History

edit

Construction

edit
The Gershwin was built as part of theUris Building(now Paramount Plaza).

In September 1967,Uris Buildings Corporationleased the site of theCapitol Theatreon Broadway, between 50th and 51st Streets, for 100 years. Uris announced it would build an office tower and a Broadway theater on the site.[27]The Broadway theater would have 1,500 to 2,000 seats.[27][28]In October 1967, theNew York City Planning Commission(CPC) proposed the Special Theater District Zoning Amendment, which gave zoning bonuses to office-building developers who included theaters.[29][30][31]The proposed legislation would directly allow theaters inOne Astor Plazaand the Uris Building,[32][33]which would be the first completely new Broadway theaters since theMark Hellinger Theatrewas completed in 1930.[34][35][c]The CPC approved the theater amendment that November,[32][37]and theNew York City Board of Estimategave final approval to the proposal the next month.[38][39]A second theater, which subsequently became the Circle in the Square, was announced in February 1968.[40][41]

In April 1968, the CPC scheduled a public hearing to determine whether the Astor and Uris theater permits should be approved.[39]Six parties testified in favor;the Shubert Organization,the largest operator of Broadway theaters, was the only dissenting speaker.[42]The CPC approved the theaters over the Shuberts' objections,[35][43]as did the Board of Estimate.[44]That September, Uris Buildings Corporation made a tentative deal withJames M. Nederlanderand Gerard Oestricher to operate the larger of the building's two theaters.[4][45]The larger venue was renamed forPercy Uris,head of the Uris Buildings Corporation, in 1971.[46]TheNew York Daily Newssubsequently said that the Uris family's decision to name the theater for themselves "became an object of ridicule in theatrical circles".[47]

Meanwhile, civic group Broadway Association had proposed constructing a theatrical hall of fame in amedianisland of Broadway several blocks north.[48]Earl Blackwell then suggested that the Nederlanders include a theatrical hall of fame at the Uris Theatre.[2]Plans for the hall were announced in March 1972, as the building and theater were being completed.[15][49]The first names were inducted that October, just before the theater opened.[19]

1970s

edit

The Uris Theatre was dedicated on November 19, 1972,[9][50]and hosted its first show on November 28, a performance of the musicalVia GalacticastarringRaul Julia.[51][52]The theater was cited as having 1,840,[53]1,870,[54][55]1,900,[2][3]or 1,940 seats when it was completed.[56]Alswang estimated the theater's total cost at $12.5 million.[2][56]Despite a top ticket price of $12.75 (lower than the typical top price of $15),[53][56]itfloppedwith seven performances[3][57]and was the first Broadway show to lose a million dollars.[58]The next show wasCy ColemanandDorothy Fields's musicalSeesaw,which opened in March 1973[59][60]and transferred to the Hellinger that August, ultimately running for 296 performances.[61]A revival of theSigmund RombergoperettaThe Desert Songpremiered at the Uris in September 1973[62][63]but closed after only 15 performances.[64][65]This was followed that November by theLerner and LoewemusicalGigi,[66][67]which lasted 103 performances.[68]For the most part, the Uris lost money during its first two seasons, since it was dark most of the time.[69]The Uris also hosted annual ceremonies when people were inducted into the Theatrical Hall of Fame. Due to a lack of money, there were no new inductions between 1973 and 1979.[70]

There were no newlegitimateshows in 1974.[3][71]After singerSammy Davis Jr.had a highly profitable concert that May, James M. Nederlander decided to book concerts at the theater for the remainder of the year, citing its acoustic qualities. Nederlander said the theater could also be used for musicals if there was demand in the future.[69][72]ANew York Timescritic said the Uris Building, which had just gone into foreclosure, might be a "monument to its mortality" instead of "a leader in the revitalization of Broadway".[73]Musicians who appeared in 1974 includedMott the Hoople(performing withQueen[74]);Enrico Maciasand his La Fete Orientale Co.;Andy WilliamswithMichel Legrand;Anthony NewleywithHenry Mancini;Johnny Mathisand the Miracles;The 5th Dimension;andRaphael.[71]The17th Annual Grammy Awardswere presented at the Uris in March 1975,[75]and the Dance Theatre of Harlem performed at the theater that May.[76]Frank Sinatra,Ella Fitzgerald,andCount Basiehad a limited concert appearance that September,[77][78]and the Houston Grand Opera Association presented the operaTreemonishathe next month.[79][80]This was followed by performances from ballet dancersMargot FonteynandRudolf Nureyev,singer-songwriterPaul Anka,and theAmerican Ballet Theatre.[71]

The Dance Theatre of Harlem returned to the theater in March 1976.[81]TheD'Oyly Carte Opera Companypresented threeGilbert and Sullivanoperettas at the Uris that May,[82]followed the next month by a concert appearance fromAl GreenandAshford & Simpson.[83][84]That October, the Houston Grand Opera presented the musicalPorgy and Bess.[85][86]The theater went back to hosting concerts, with appearances byBing CrosbyandBarry Manilowin December 1976.[71]The Dance Theatre of Harlem canceled a planned 1977 season at the Uris due to a financial deficit.[87]Instead, Nureyev returned in March 1977 for a ballet performance,[88][89]andBéjart: Ballet of the Twentieth Centuryperformed the same month.[90][91]The musicalThe King and I,withYul BrynnerandConstance Towers,opened in May 1977[92][93]and ran for 719 performances, becoming the theater's longest-running show.[94]Another long-lasting show wasStephen SondheimandHugh Wheeler's musicalSweeney ToddwithAngela Lansbury,which opened in March 1979[94][95]and ran for 557 performances over the next year.[96]

1980s

In 1980, the Uris mostly hosted performances by ballet companies.[97]The following January, theNew York Shakespeare Festivalproduced Gilbert & Sullivan'sThe Pirates of Penzance,[98][99]which relocated to the Minskoff in August 1981.[100]This was followed immediately afterward by a revival of Lerner and Loewe'sMy Fair Lady,withRex Harrison,[97][101]which lasted 124 performances.[102][103]That November, the musicalAnnietransferred to the Uris;[97][104]it ran for over a year, concluding its run of 2,377 performances there.[105][106]Next, Nureyev performed with theBoston Balletin early 1983,[97][107]and the Houston Grand Opera presentedJerome KernandOscar Hammerstein II's musicalShow Boatthat April.[108][109]At that time,Tony AwardsproducerAlexander H. Cohenannounced that the37th Tony Awardsceremony would be hosted there and that the Uris would be renamed after musical-writing brothersIraandGeorge Gershwin.[110]During the ceremony on June 5, 1983, the theater was rededicated.[111][112]Show Boatclosed shortly thereafter[113][114]and was followed in July byMame,featuring Lansbury.[115][116]

The Gershwin hosted a memorial for Ira Gershwin after he died in August 1983, two months after the theater's renaming.[117]The theater continued to face issues with booking extended runs of large musicals. In January 1984, Nederlander announced he would again use it as a concert hall for a year.[118]This time, the theater hosted performances fromShirley MacLaine;[119][120]Twyla Tharp;[121][122]Rudolf Nureyev;[123][124]andGladys Knight & the PipswithKashif.[125][126]In addition, the theater hosted the38th Tony Awardsin June 1984.[127]TheRoyal Shakespeare CompanypresentedMuch Ado about NothingandCyrano de Bergeracinrepertoryfor ten weeks starting in October 1984.[97][128]The theater was acoustically modified for these plays, as it was the first time the theater had hostedstraight plays.[128]This was followed in early 1985 by concert appearances fromPatti LaBelle[129][130]andSmokey Robinson.[131][132]Next, the musicalSingin' in the Rainopened in July 1985[133][134]and ran for 367 performances over the next ten months.[135][136]

At the time, six of the Nederlanders' nine Broadway theaters were dark, and there was a shortage of new musicals.[143]Only one live performance happened this time:[144]a set of concerts by Barry Manilow in mid-1989.[145][146]That November, the musical comedyMeet Me in St. Louisopened,[147]running for 253 performances.[148][149]

The next production at the Gershwin Theatre wasStephen Schwartz's musicalWicked,which opened in October 2003.[212][213]David Stone,one ofWicked'sproducers, was initially reluctant to book the Gershwin because of the theater's reputation for short-lived productions, as well as its size.[214]Despite initial negative reviews,Wickedbecame so popular that it continued at the Gershwin indefinitely.[215]The theater's large seating capacity also turned out to be suitable for the musical's popularity.[214]As part of a settlement with theUnited States Department of Justicein 2014, the Nederlanders agreed to improve disabled access at their nine Broadway theaters, including the Gershwin.[216][217]Wickedwas still playing when the theaterclosed on March 12, 2020,due to theCOVID-19 pandemic.[218]The theater reopened on September 14, 2021, with performances ofWicked.[219][220]
