Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre

Herbert J. Krapp designed it as the Royale in 1927; it spent six years as the John Golden Theatre, went back to Royale, and took its present name in 2005 for the Shubert Organization president. The 1,078-seat room opened with Piggy and held Grease for its longest run. The Outsiders is the current production.
