Neil Simon Theatre

Named, of course, for America's most successful playwright, the Neil Simon is a lovely mid-to-large-sized theatre. Run by the Nederlander's, it originally opened as the Alvin Theatre and was renamed in 1983. Seats are comfortable. The orchestra and mezzanine provide great views from virtually any location.
