Vivian Beaumont Theatre


The Vivian Beaumont Theater is a theater located in the Lincoln Center complex at 150 West 65th Street on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. It is New York City’s only Broadway-class theater (thus making its productions eligible for Tony Awards) that is not located in the Theater District near Times Square.

The theater is named after Vivian Beaumont Allen, a former actress and heiress to the May Department Stores fortune, who donated $3 million for a building to house a permanent dramatic repertory company at Lincoln Center in 1958. Mrs. Allen died in 1962, and after several delays and estimated construction costs of $9.6 million, the Vivian Beaumont opened on October 21, 1965 with a revival of the 1835 play Danton’s Death by Georg Büchner. The cast included James Earl Jones and Stacy Keach.
