Situated just off Times Square in New York on 44th Street, 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 Hudson Theatre is one of New York Citys oldest Broadway showplaces. The 100-foot long lobby was the largest ever seen on Broadway at that time. On September 27, 1956 the first nationwide broadcast of The Tonight Show starring Steve Allen originated from the Hudson Theatre. It was granted landmark status for both its internal and external features in 1987.

tripadvisorThe Hudson can transform into a perfect setting for every single production! It is classy, clean, filled with ornate beauty! Staff was friendly seats are comfortable, the ultimate intimate location to experience phenomenal theater! We loved how they transformed the stage for Merrily We Roll Along as well as its current running of Every Brilliant Thing. Bravo!
MoreWonderful, smaller venue, with DELIGHTFUL personnel. We utilized pre-show advance entry which included a stop in the upstairs lounge prior to the show. The young man who checked us in and the woman who seated us were fantastic. The drink menu is great and the servers there were fantastic, there are also two restrooms up there, which we could make use of before and after the show - away from the crowd. Top notch.
MoreI'm not a big Broadway show fan so this is my first time at the Hudson Theater/ Opened in 1903, the theater is smaller than I thought with about 975 seats, evoking an intimate atmosphere.The beautifully restored interiors showcase original art deco elements, providing a unique backdrop for both classic and modern productions.Right now, the Hudson is hosting Waiting for Godot, starring Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter. I'm not familiar with the play so it was interesting to see; it's existential, darkly comedic at times, and sad and honest. The minimalist production design emphasizes the powerful performances of the stellar cast and the existential conversation between the two main characters.My seat was in the balcony and there are over two flights of stairs to climb so be aware for those with mobility issues.Alex Winter was great; not surprisingly since he began his career as a child actor on Broadway.I'm a huge fan of Keanu Reeves (it's why I came) but he's no Broadway baby; his performance is stiff and stilted. This is his first Broadway production so I'm not sure if its just nerves. I'd be nervous!The people sitting next to me left during intermission and didn't return. But the theater was packed and everyone emoted at the right times during the performance.This was an interesting show and I'm glad I came to see it. Keanu and Alex have always had great chemistry as a duo and it's awesome to see them live on stage.
MoreA really nice theatre. Essentially, no bad seat in the theater. The rows had plenty of space, so you could stretch your legs. Super comfortable seats. We liked this theater!!
MoreLove my first time here! It’s so beautiful theater and easy to find. I saw The Last Five Years and the play was amazing! Friendly staff and great experience.
