Easy to get in and get seated, the staff was very nice and friendly. Great views and good sound system. The stage had great special effects.

Overall a great experience seeing life of pi.

We sat in box seats while seeing Life of Pi. The theatre was very cute and cozy. There were plenty of bathroom stalls downstairs. There was an option to buy alcoholic drinks near the bathrooms.

Nothing surprising or unique about this theater. It looks nice inside. Well-kept. Views are pretty good in any seat as long as you don't have an adult directly in front of you.

Smallish theater but I think all the seats would have good views. What I didn't like was that we had to queue outside in the pouring rain and the doorman was quite gruff and rude. I think they could have been more considerate that we had spent a lot if money, and didn't expect to be in the rain and shouted at. I'm not reviewing the play ( life of Pi ...which was amazing 👏 )

Very nice theater. Came here to see “life of pi” it was phenomenal & I highly recommend.
Sat in the mezzanine in the aisle seat which was perfect, because I got leg space and best view of the theatre and show. Women’s bathroom upstairs and male’s bathroom downstairs. Seats are narrow.
Definitely make your way here to watch the show!

beautiful theater facilities, comfy seats, fabulous view of stage from every seat and wonderful shows. we saw Come From Away this time, other shows previously — this theater does not disappoint. 5 stars

This theater is absolutely stunning. Came here to see Come From Away and I was blown away by how beautiful the theater was from the inside.

There are 1080 seats, and every single seat has a great view of the stage. Additionally, the theater has excellent acoustics making it very easy to hear.

There’s also plenty of space in the lobby to hang out before and after a performance. Staff are friendly and helpful if you need to find where you’re going.

It would be nice if they had a few more restrooms available. There are only a few which does not meet the demand of a crowd this big. I do realize that is probably never going to change since this has already been built.

Overall this is an excellent theater and very easy to access from the Times Square, Subway Station.

A beautiful theater and a great venue to see an amazing musical, "Come From Away" The seating is a typical Broadway style with tighter seats but the legroom was nice. Anywhere in the orchestra is a fantastic seat. The bathrooms were clean and not too bad of lines with a packed house. There are 3 bars and I would recommend going to the downstairs bar as no one was there. Enjoy the show!
