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 17 of these runs lasted. We don't have a performance count.
  • When 16 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.
