Info

Theatre Row is an entertainment district of Off Broadway theatres on 42nd Street in Midtown Manhattan west of Ninth Avenue. The space originally referred to a 1977 redevelopment project to convert adult entertainment venues into theatres between 9th and Tenth Avenues on the south side of 42nd Street. However with the success of the district the name is often used to describe any theatre on either side of the street from Ninth Avenue to the Hudson River as more theatres have been built along the street.
From east to west, theatres along Theatre Row are:
Laurie Beechman Theatre
Theatre Row Building, housing six small theatres: the Beckett, Acorn, Clurman, Kirk, Lion and Studio theatres
Playwrights Horizons
Stage 42 (formerly the Little Shubert Theatre)
Pershing Square Signature Center
Castillo Theatre
Pearl Theatre
