Why You’ll Love It
Once known as the Guild Theatre, the August Wilson Theatre opened in 1925 and was renamed in 2005 after the respected playwright to honor his contributions to Broadway. It was designed to resemble a 15th-century Tuscan villa and sits amongst some of New York City's most famous attractions, offering an intimate setting for audiences and amazing acoustics for the performers. Previous notable productions include Caesar and Cleopatra, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Annie, Carrie, The Crucible, My Fair Lady, Little Shop of Horrors, Little Women, Mean Girls, Funny Girl, and most recently, the unique experience of Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club.
