The Palace Theatre opened in 1913, and the Nederlander Organization’s page says that for many years it was the preeminent vaudeville theatre in the country. The Nederlanders bought it in 1965, and it became a legitimate theatre in 1966. Its interior is a New York City landmark, designated in 1987. Wikipedia says that, as part of the TSX Broadway development, it closed in 2018, was lifted 30 feet in early 2022, and reopened when the work was completed in May 2024.

The operator’s page gives it 1,648 seats on an orchestra, a mezzanine and a balcony, with a passenger elevator connecting all levels. In our view, centre orchestra is the seat to want, and the front of the mezzanine is worth pricing against it. The Lost Boys is in residence.

Operated by the Nederlander Organization. Address: 1564 Broadway at 47th Street, at the north edge of Times Square.
