What this page does not know

• What played here before Broadway record-keeping starts, and what played here outside it: concerts, benefits, film runs, anything that was not a listed production.
• How long 3 of these runs lasted. We don't have a performance count.
• When 27 of these runs ended. They carry an opening date and no closing date, and they are old enough that they certainly closed. Nobody wrote down the date.
• When the building opened.
• How many seats.
• Who built it.
• Any photograph of the building.
