The American Airlines Theatre, originally the Selwyn Theatre, is a historic Italian Renaissance style Broadway theatre built in 1918. It was designed by George Keister and built by the Selwyn brothers. Used for musicals and other dramatic performances it was eventually converted for film. It was used briefly as a visitor’s center but stood vacant for years until a 1997 renovation and restoration. It is located at 227 West 42nd Street, New York City.
