Why you should go…

Broadway tours, concerts, and comedy fill this dazzling district of restored 1920s movie palaces, the biggest theater rescue project in the world and the largest performing arts center in the U.S. outside Lincoln Center. Even without a ticket, come see the 20-foot GE Chandelier sparkling over Euclid Avenue. With a ticket, the gilded interiors steal the show before the curtain even rises.
