Info

PlayStation Theater (formerly Best Buy Theater and Nokia Theatre Times Square) is an indoor live events venue, owned and managed by Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG) and Sony (100%), located on 1515 Broadway, at the corner of Broadway and 44th street. It was designed by architect David Rockwell and opened in September 2005. The venue has a large standing room orchestra section, combined with a large area of seating towards the rear of the auditorium.
The venue was originally built as the Loew's Astor Plaza Theatre, a movie theater operated by Loews Theatres, which opened in 1974. It closed in August 2004, and was converted to a concert venue, reopening in October 2005. The estimated total cost of the transformation was $21 million.
