| | Winter Garden Isn't Adding Sponsor to Name |
 | | Gerald Schoenfeld, the chairman of the Shubert Organization, which owns the theater, said Thursday that his company had ended discussions with General Motors about changing the name of the Winter Garden, home to ``Cats,'' to the Cadillac Winter Garden, or some variation thereof, in exchange for corporate sponsorship. |
 | | The announcement came just a day after the Roundabout Theater Company announced it was selling the name of the historic Selwyn Theater, its new home, to American Airlines, a deal that was greeted with a mix of approval and skepticism. |
 | | As for the Winter Garden, Schoenfeld offered no additional comment, and a call to GM was not immediately returned. |
