Theater Description

The Polonsky Shakespeare Center, the 299-seat Elizabethan courtyard Mainstage is the first theatre built in New York City for Shakespeare and classic drama since the Vivian Beaumont at Lincoln Center in the 1960s.  We welcome friends, artists and our new community to gather, learn and explore in our first home, a new state-of-the-art theatre dedicated to Shakespeare. To date, the Theatre has raised $65.72 million of a three phase Capital Campaign goal of $69.1 million and less than $3.4 million remains to be raised to complete the campaign during the new theatre’s inaugural season.
