If you want to be taken back in time, the Booth Theatre is one that and deliver. This theater is a fun one to watch a play or improv.

Great theater with great seats throughout. The security at the stage door was fantastic - very polite and kind and they were also prepared with extra sharpies for the cast that was coming out for autographs. I truly appreciate their professionalism. The lounge in the basement is nice to warm up in after being in the cold before going to your seat.

Saw boys in the band, flawless performances. Zachary Q. Was amazing as was Jim P. Nice theater. Clean bathrooms etc., definitely would return for another show.

I had a blast watching The Boys in the Band, its a good size theather and while the seats may seem small (which they are) but u feel comfortable. We were on the mezzanine and had a great great view of stage. The staff is really nice. The bathrooms are downstairs and has a huge lounge down there.

I saw Gary at this theater last night and was unpleasantly surprised by the level of customer service. I think perhaps the employees and management at this establishment forget that it is in many cases the tourist dollars which ultimately fund their paychecks. I witnessed grouchy employees bark at elderly tourists as if they were young children.During a huge rainstorm, employees were kind enough to let us wait inside, but barked at us like we were a herd of stupid sheep.No water bottles!Don’t cross this velvet rope, what do you think it’s here for?Get away from the door, it opens outward! Don’t stand in front of thatdoor because that’s the stage door and someone could come out!You need to make room for people to get to the box office so go stand back there! Where? Back there behind some other guy.If you are going to run an establishment that caters to many tourists in one of the most visited cities on the planet, then you should hire people who understand tourists may not know your rules. We won’t know exactly where to stand. We won’t know that doors open outward because there was a fire in New Jersey many years ago and all New York doors are required to be opened outward. We won’t know what is and isn’t allowed in a theater. We won’t know that the air-conditioning will be turned down so low and even though many of us are sitting in wet clothing due to the rain storm it will not be adjusted.Perhaps some people come here to be spoken to as if they are idiots. But I saw people who could have been my parents or grandparents being talked to in ways that I found very offensive. I will never visit this theater again. And I hope management reads my comments and takes them seriously. It’s clear some of your employees have been at their jobs for way too long.The one exception to my review is a charming usher named Phil. He was friendly, outgoing, engaging, and spoke to everyone in a fun and welcoming manner. Aside from Phil if I wanted to be treated like I was in preschool, I would visit your theater more often. Never again.I take no pleasure in writing reviews like this. But I felt I had to speak up on behalf of the elderly folks visiting this theater.

Beautiful theater space. Saw Freestyle Love Supreme here and it was lovely. The stage had a blueish tone to it and the space felt somehow intimate but large at the same time. Id recommend this theater highly.

This theater (like most Broadway theaters) is beautiful. Had a really good time enjoying the show (freestyle love supreme) just note that you must out your phone in a pouch that locks. So you wont be able to use it during or before the show

This theatre is very quaint. I visited the Booth theatre to watch Broadway show American Son. This show was great and included stars such as Kerry Washungtin and Steven Pasquale. There is handicapped availability on the regular level. The cheaper seats are on the second level; which is not a bad location beacaue the theatre is small and all seats have a great view. There is a restroom upstairs as well as downatairs. If you ever get a chance to visit a Broadway play in N.Y., check to see whats playing at the Booth theatre first because you will not be disappointed. I enjoyed my seating as wrk as the show. The employees were also helpful and courteous.

I saw The Boys in the Band here, and while the theatre is cosy and intimate, if youre sitting at the back like I was, you had an obscured view of the upstairs scenes.If you can, get seats in the middle and towards the front of the theatre. Youre not going to get a full experience sitting at the back of this venue.

Nice intimate venue not a bad seat in the house. Word if warning to the non NYers its right off from the madness of Time Sq. You might know ghat I didnt. Youre welcome.

Saw Freestyle Love Supreme. Great show! Nice small theatre. Not a bad seat in the house.

Very nice theater. Small enough that every seat in orchestra is good. Ive seen several shows there and its already been a good experience. Location is great too. Shubert Alley is convenient to everything.

Great play! Too crowded. I wish these theaters would give us more pitch and more legroom!!

Great theatre. Sight lines are important at any venue. Ive only say in the mezzanine seating the both times I have been here, but not a bad seat in that area. Buy with confidence.

Went to see Freestyle Love Supreme. One of the ushers was very rude not only to me, but I watched her be rude to just about everyone she seated. I failed to see her name badge, but I’m fairly certain I’m not the first to point her out.

Went to see freestyle love supreme. It was not real hiphop. But it obviously sells to a certain crowd tho.This platform should be given to people from New York with real talent and representing the hiphop scene. The theatre itself was good.

Freestyle Love Supreme was amazing here. A must see.

I saw Freestyle Love Supreme and it was a great show! The theater offered snacks and comfy seats.

LES LIAISONS DANGEREUSES - Wonderful play! Theater is older and no seat is too far from the stage. If youre in the balcony, better have strong legs. No elevator and a lot of steep stairs. Just beautiful inside.

Nice venue for shows. Watched Freestyle Love Supreme and had an awesome time.

Seats are comfortable. First row mezzanine wall is a bit too high and close to your knees.

The brother of the founder of this theater murdered Abraham Lincoln. The fourth play ever produced here was the same one that Lincoln was watching when he got killed. That just seemed unnecessary. The theater is pretty cool BTW and freestyle love supreme is so much fun with the crowd. It’s a shame that it will be closing so soon. I need to hit a certain amount of words to have this review count as longer which helps my local guide score, so I’m gonna just keep rambling until I get there. I recommend that if you enjoy this review, you smash the like and follow buttons and check out some of my older content, and maybe like that too. It would really help.

Seeing Freestyle Love Supreme here was so fun! The staff was friendly and helpful.

One of my favorite theaters. Good seats. Good location. Good acoustics

Beautiful theater, on the smaller side for Broadway. We sat in the last row of the balcony and still had a perfect view!

For a traditional theatre fairly spacious seating. A little cramped by modern standards but Ive been to other locations in the district and you can do far worse.Theater staff was friendly and helpful ( not always the case in venues Ive been to).

Great theater and sound quality. No seats are really bad

It was an exciting experience seeing this Broadway play and how it is relevant to what is going on in the country at this time regardless of which part you reside in. This play is on a limited run so take advantage of the opportunity to see American Son before it disappears.

Nice historic theatre. Good staff. Have seen many shows here. As with most of the older theatres in the theatre district, the seats are small and dont have much leg room, so expect tight quarters if are big and/or tall. Good sight lines from most of the seats.

One of the great theaters on Bdwy! Even from the last row, you have a great view of the stage.

Wonderful nite out with church familyAMERICAN SON.

Freestyle love supreme was fun and uplifting. Intimate setting. Good experience.

Amazing theater, every seat is great. Staff was very accommodating and couldnt have been any nicer!

Beautifully aged and ornate. This intimate theater was perfect for this intense, thought provking, authentic and moving play American Son. The actors were captivating and brought the writers vision to life! The venue was perfect. The acoustics were excellent, allowing you to hear every word. The seating was comfortable and the Broadway feel was present. I would definitely choose this theater to see another performance. Be prepared, the only lounge is located on the lower level, but its Broadway and goes with the building and when it was built. I did not observe an elevator, so plan accordingly...

Excellent Venue. We saw American Son staring Kerry Washington.

Not a bad seat in this intimate playhouse. Loved it!

Great theater. Try to see Freestyle Love Supreme while u r there its one of the funniest things Ive ever seen

Went to see free style love supreme. Had a great time. Loved it.

Very cozy intimate theater with a great sound system as well.

Beautiful, historic space. Very intimate, so youll usually see plays here instead of musicals. Truly fantastic theatre.

Saw Boys in the Band and the staff were all accommodating friendly and enthusiastic about their job, the theater and the play. Made you feel welcome. The seats are typical theater seats... No leg room at all..... But relatively comfortable. Theater is a gem , so beautiful and elegant. Rest rooms were easy to get in and out and bars were well stocked and quick. A really great experience.

Very pretty little theatre. We were lucky enough to get last minute seats and they were perfect. We saw The Boys in the Band, staring Jim Parsons, in previews. Run, dont walk, to get tickets for this amazing performance. Every actor in the show should be nominated for a Tony. Jim Parsons is mesmerizing and powerful. You will love this theater, as well. Appears smaller and more intimate. Even the woman at box office was a delight. Love the theater and love the show!

Very friendly, helpful staff. Could upgrade for people with difficulty climbing stairs. Decor was pleasant. Nice having bathroom on second level, though it would have been helpful to know there were only two stalls, and using downstairs facility would have been faster.

Went to see American Son with Kerry Washington. I stand 5 ft 10 in., If the show wasnt as riveting as it was I wouldnt have forgotten about my discomfort my knees were pressed against the back of the chair in front of me. We didnt see a coat check so I had to hold my coat and purse in an already very limited space, which added to the discomfort. Aesthetically the theater its beautiful, the acoustics were great as whats my line of sight. The male usher upstairs was courteous and attentive, but the female usher was curt and dismissive, not only to me but was overheard being very rude to other theatre guest.

I saw Gary here in May of 2019 and it was absolutely extraordinary! I had tickets in the Mezzanine at the very back row(row H). Viewing the stage from the Mezzanine, I felt like I living in a 4:3 aspect ratio, the seats are situated so you end up having elbow wars with the person next to you. Luckily I was pulled out with 4 others in row H and were given near back row orchestra seats. The space available in these seats isnt even comparable, its like heaven and Earth. Also the play was good.

Saw Freestyle Love Supreme here with Tarik Davis AKA Tardis Hardaway. The show was so good, we saw it twice!

Comfortable theater - most seats had good views of stage

Saw Lin-Manuel Miranda’s newest Broadway gig here last night at first preview. It’s 100% improv (or so they say). Will see with time if they actually planted ppl in the audience or if it’s based on actual audience input. Whatever the case, it’s a talented and brilliant cast. Bottom line: I think it’s too pricey for what it is. $155 for a mezzanine ticket for a 90 mins show. Also they lock up your phone so only have this one photo.

I work there. A wonderful theater.

Beautiful theater, very attentive staff, were able to keep a very packed afternoon show moving. Super friendly bartender. Theater layout is very good, I imagine there really isnt a bad seat in the house.

Wonderful typical of Broadway theaters with great views of the stage from almost every seat....

Expect the typical Broadway theater experience. The line moved fairly fast and the ushers were very friendly and helpful. The theater was ornate as expected, but also cramped with too many seats (no surprises there too). The performance we saw was another story, and I wont let my impression of that influence my overall rating of this place.

Lots of advantages to a small theater.. the lines are short everywhere be it for drinks or the loo for one. Then Id say all seats in the house will be pretty good. Only two levels - orchestra and mezzanine. The ambience is still old world (I love that) but seemed it was renovated recently (also good.) We saw Boys in the Band here, fantastic show by the way, made awesomer by the cool, effortless experience this theater offers.

Fabulous views and audio from every seat.

Great theatre. Fantastic bartenders.

American Son was amazing. The ending was a gasp expressed by all in attendance. I didnt want the show to end. Thank you Booth staff you were all pleasant and welcoming..

This small theater has great roomy seating in the orchestra section. Not a bad seat in the house.

Love that they try to make certain performances are not leaked: by securing cellphones in alarmed pouches. It helps folks remain in the here + now

Were going there for Matt Bomer.Booth Theater is right in the heart of Broadway, on 45th Street, near the Marriot Times Square. A typical Broadway theater: old, renovated, room of some 800 seats with mezzanine, comfortable seating. I was at the orchestra level at $ 159 USD, so among the best places.The production featured The Boys in the Band with several movie stars: Matt Bomer (White Collar), Zacharie Quinto (Star Trek), Charlie Carver, etc. New Broadway way : a lot of productions with movie stars, for a limited number of weeks. In this case, from late June to mid-August 2018.The play brings us into a gay birthday party. Adventures both tragic and very funny. Everyone is bitche to who better. A not so gay world, as we said a few decades ago. However, it is a very pleasant moment.I was at the afternoon presentation (2pm). Comedians do not show up after the play for signatures or selfies. Pity! You have to be generous with the audience, guys. Its the audience that makes you live!

Freestyle Love Supreme is a MUST SEE show.

Wonderful ... saw Kerry Washington in American Son

Went and saw boys in the bank here and the theater is stunning! The staff is top notch and all smiles!

Went here to see American son with Kerry Washington and it was awesome. The location is small and intimate. It felt as if you were right on stage with the actors.

Nice theater. Seen a few shows in the building. Not too many bad seats. Standing room behind orchestra also fine.

Nice size theater. No balcony so all good seats.

Seats were TIGHT! No leg room. Staff were friendly and helpful. Lots of steps (like most NYC theaters to get to the mezzanine. Good seats though (3rd row).

The girl at the box office upgraded us to orchestra seats, lovely surprise. Loved dangerous liaisons!!!

Nice theater. Attractive interior. Nice size. Big enough but also small enough to make it comfortable for all.

Ive seen a couple plays here now. We had seats in the upper mezzanine and they were still great. Its a smaller theater, so theres not really a bad seat to be had.

American Son was SO thought-provoking, extremely well acted, and the costumes and scenery were perfect for a play that needed your mind to be present for every moment. Thank you for such an amazing evening.

The show Gary: A sequel to Titus Andronicus was great! Amazing cast!The theater itself has a bad odors at least in the mezzanine. Please do something about it

They dont refer to this classic Broadway house as the jewel box for nothing! You will be nestled in red velvet for your stay, and it is as intimate a space as it gets. Sound and sight lines great no matter where you sit. Been here many times, most recently for the fantastic revival of Boys in the Band. NB: This is eurostyle floor plan, so no far left or far right aisles.

Excellent service, fast and very considerate with my elderly mother.

Great experience, great show, highly recommend.

Nice smaller theatre. Seats arent cramp and dont feel like Im on top of the people next to me. Or feel like my line of site is being blocked by people in front of me. Im 510 184 lbs.

Small theater. You feel like you are close to the stage Even from the mezanie. Ushers will let you move up if the seats are unoccupied.

Our second time seeing American Son. Everything went smoothly the first time. Seating was comfortable enough and acoustics were good. The second time we were a group of 15, the day before New Years Eve, so with road barricades and traffic, not everyone arrived on time. The play is only 90 minutes, and we were told if we didnt go in at the start, there would only be one other opportunity to enter at 20 into the show. Our party had split seating, half in mezzanine and half in orchestra. This was due to inadvertently purchasing through Head Out, which I would not recommend for a large group. Anyway, I left 7 tickets at the box office for the guests who had not arrived. Because some were for mezzanine and some for orchestra, the seating got confused, and family members were not seated together. In hindsight, I should have put names on each ticket, but I was being rushed to go in by the theater staff, so I didnt think to do that. Other than that, all was well.

A bit crowded, but enjoyed the shows here

Love this theatre. loved seeing Nathan Lane in Garry.

I was amazed at how wonderful everything about this theater was. I have a portable oxygen concentrator and a rolling walker and was so worried about attending The Boys in the Band. From start to finish everybody could not have been any kinder and accommodating. The theater is small and there is no bad seat on the floor. Every seat on the floor had a great view. I love love love this theater and hope that I get to come back again.

Broadway for anniversary. Very nice venue. Great show

Old, un-modern, small. Excellent sound system. 2 bars (use upstairs bar). A double is $30. Whole theatre exited within 5 mins. People walking in extremely late. If your man is football-sized, please get him a seat so he can stretch out his legs

Beautifully decorated old style theatre. Smaller intimate space. Great place to see a play, special event or even a chamber musical.

Freestyle Love Supreme was wonderful.

Went to the box office today and asked about ticket availability. The girl at box office was explaining that there were seats available through Saturday and Sunday was black. At that point a door opens and a man was wagging his finger and scolding me to be quiet as there was a show going on. I was talking through the glass at the box office so maybe my voice was loud enough...certainly not yelling. I would have no idea my voice could be heard through the door and no idea that door even led directly into the theater. The ticket booth worker never asked me to whisper nor did I speak extraneously about anything other than tickets. It was a two minute conversation. When he left I looked at the ticket booth and said ...he just yelled at me to be quiet? She said dead pan...there is a show going on. I was at a ticket counter which was there to sell tickets. Certainly I should be able to talk at an ordinary level about buying tickets. Otherwise the box office should be closed. The worker took a phone call and I left. I bought tickets to hello dolly instead. It was a very awkward and unnecessarily unpleasant experience. Furthermore the ticket booth should have a sign stating to whisper or the booth worker should tell people to whisper to avoid this embarrassing situation.

Nice old theater with tins of Broadway history.

Freestyle love supreme was so incredible!!!

Freestyle Love Supreme!!!!

Got rush tickets for American Son. Excellent view and the box office was friendly.

Theatre was very cold. Kept our jackets on. The play American Son was wonderfulGreat cast. Highly recommend

This is a rather small theater and every seat has a good sightline. Located in the very heart of the theater district.

Had seat on aisle in row m of orchestra. Comfortable leg room between rows and among better of theaters. Restrooms down two flights of stairs from orchestra.

The theater itself is fine, but the show American son, was in my view, problematic.Kerry Washington expressed fear and rage and plenty of both, but not much else. Her characters situation pretty much set her up for that, But no one said that the situation had to be precisely the way it was. That was the playwrights decision.Uni- dimensional characters ... especially angry ones ... dont work too well for me. There is an ebb and flow in good writing that develops character in both relaxed and tense modalities. Unfortunately, this was not that sort of play.

Small and Charming theater. The orchestra seats are small but the leg room was just enough.

Lovely lounge and chairs! Great for taking pictures before heading upstairs to watch a performance.

Intimate location, wonderful show.

Small theater. Not a bad seat in the house

Small theater with comfortable seats and good views of the stage, we were 2/3s back. Small bars up and down. Limited bathrooms. Easy parking and convenient location.

A bit too cool after the shiw began. Very nice. Clean. Well lit. Comfy seats.

So lucky to have seen American Son here. Incredible show and a gorgeous space.
