Shubert Theatre - 1919
Shubert Theatre, in the Broadway District, opened in 1913 and was built for the Shubert brothers. It is operated now by The Shubert Organization. The Shubert and Booth theaters were designed by Henry Beaumont Herts (1871-1933) in the Italian Renaissance style, with similar arrangements. The Shubert's elegant interior is marked by elaborate plasterwork, and a series of theatrically-themed painted panels that adorn the boxes, the area above the proscenium arch, and the ceiling.
