Broadway’s Smallest Theater Is Reopening, This Time As A Nonprofit

“The theater was so small, it was named the Little Theater. That was 106 years ago, and since then it has been reincarnated many times – renamed, repurposed, rehabilitated. Now known as the Helen Hayes Theater, … the 589-seat playhouse has a new mission: … to present work by living American playwrights, a form of counterprogramming at a time when Broadway is dominated by musicals, revivals and British imports.”
