Music Box Theatre

Music Box Theatre The once most aptly named theatre on Broadway, the intimate Music Box was designed by architect C. Harris specifically to house Berlin's famed Music Box Revues.
(1746)

Howard Crane and constructed by composer Irving Berlin and producer Sam H. It opened in 1921 and hosted a new musical production every year until 1925, when it presented its first play, Cradle Snatchers, starring Humphrey Bogart. The following year, Chicago, the Maurine Dallas Watkins play that served as the basis for the hit musical, opened here. It housed a string of hits for the play writing team of George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart, from their first collaboration Once in a Lifetime to their hit play The Man Who Came to Dinner. Cole Porter and George and Ira Gershwin also presented shows here.
