The theatre, designed by Herbert Krapp, boasts a noticeable Spanish influence. With over 12,000 performances under its belt (a Broadway record), the Majestic theatre has transcended mere theatre status and become a New York City landmark. In 1988, The Phantom of the Opera premiered in the Majestic theatre and there has been no looking back since then.
The theatre opened for the first time in 1927, hosting a revue by Rufus Lemaire and has gone on to host some iconic musicals like Grease, Funny Girl, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and 42nd Street. Constructed in 1927 by real estate developers, the Chanin Brothers, the Majestic theatre was originally part of a three-theatre complex, with the Royale and the John Golden making up the trio.
