Hudson Theatre (Broadway) History

Situated just off Times Square in New York on 44th Street, between Millennium Broadway Hotel and The Premier Hotel, the Hudson Theatre originally opened on October 19, 1903 with a production of Cousin Kate starring Ethel Barrymore. Built by Henry B. Harris, a famous Broadway producer of that period, the theatre is one of New York City's oldest Broadway showplaces. The 100-foot long lobby was the largest ever seen on Broadway at that time. Among the stars that have graced the Hudson's stage are Douglas Fairbanks, William Holden, Helen Hayes, Edward G. Robinson and Dorothy Gish. Barbara Stanwyck and Judith Anderson both made their debuts on its stage. On September 27, 1956 the first nationwide broadcast of The Tonight Show starring Steve Allen originated from the Hudson stage. After a multi-million dollar renovation, ATG in association with Millennium Hotels and Resorts restored the landmark venue to its former glory and reopened the venue as the 41st Broadway theatre with a critically acclaimed production of Sunday in the Park with George starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Annaleigh Ashford.

Other stars to have graced the Hudson Theatre stage include Olivia WildeUma ThurmanPhillipa SooAdam Driver, and David Byrne!
