10 Concerts & Shows in Theater District That You Shouldn't Miss
Conquering New York in one visit is impossible. Instead, hit the must-sees – the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art – and then explore off the beaten path with visits to The Cloisters or one of the city’s libraries. Indulge in the bohemian shops of the West Village or the fine dining of the Upper West Side. The bustling marketplace inside of Grand Central Station gives you a literal taste of the best the city has to offer.

This is a beautiful theatre, and the production was outstanding. Many stairs to maneuver if you need the restrooms, but that is the norm in NYC. Good staff and helpful ushers.

We saw The Illusionists Magic of the Holidays show and head a great time. The show was filled great magic acts and very funny jokes. It is great for kids and adults. Every illusionist has his own style and completely different acts, which kept this two hour show going by very quickly. The theater has a very good seating configuration, which gives you a great view, no matter where you sit.

The Minskoff Theatre is beautiful, clean & our seats were great. They did a marvelous job of designing the stage for "The Lion King" production. We fall in the category of folks who thought the show was fantastic! From the Actors, to the costumes, to the music, to the incredible staging design, everything about this show was well worth it!

An old, iconic theatre located in the heart of the Theatre District, part of the Shubert Organisation. Very small foyer. The stalls area of the seating is wide. There is a balcony and a number of boxes at the side of the auditorium. We saw a matinee of "Beetlejuice" which was superb. If you are a tourist in NY. then a ticket for this show is money well spent.

Wonderful theater right in the heart of the Times Square/Broadway. We saw Waitress and had seats in the front row of the mezzanine. Great views with very comfortable seats. Small enough theater that probably had good sightlines from all seats.

Most of the other theaters make patrons wait outside. This theater is located inside the hotel. While lines were long, it was nice not being outside. The theatre is efficiently run. The seats were comfortable and staggered so viewing was not blocked. We saw Tootsie, which was hilarious! The staging was incredible, set changes were seamless, which enhanced the pace of the play.

I have seen this in the West End in London years ago, and have now fulfilled my dream of seeing it on Broadway in New York !!! What a fantastic experience.....the theatre was small and quaint and, although we were Rear Mezanine ($69), we could still see pretty much most of the show (there was a bit with the chanderlier lifting upwards which we missed, but nothing that crucial to the plot.....I have to say, it was only on Googling the actors afterwards that I realised that none of them were British - their speaking voices/accents were spot on being British and believable. All of the actors' singing was awesome and brought a lump to my throat....but the one that almost made me cry alot was The Phantom - he was so believable and I felt sorry for him with his acting, but this actor's voice was absolutely stunning and he was the best ! I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS SHOW to tick off your Broadway show lists.

We bought tickets to this show upon the recommendation of a friend who had already seen it twice. Talented cast, creative staging, heartwarming (though predictable) storyline. The immersive nature of the experience adds a lovely dimension. After winning the Tony for "Best Musical Revival," ticket sales were brisk--go see it!
