 Cadillac Winter Garden on Broadway | The Shubert Organization
Architect William Albert Swasey converted the existing horse exchange building into a theatre by turning the showring into an auditorium with only one balcony, and decorating it with a garden motif.
The existing space dictated that Swasey design a playhouse that was unusually wide (the proscenium opening is still the widest of all Shubert theatres), which brought the audience closer to the stage.
Twelve years after the theatre opened, Herbert J. Krapp completed a major renovation of the interior which eliminated the runway, lowered the ceiling and proscenium arch, and covered the trusses, adding elegant ornamentation and bringing the theatre more in line with the traditional Adamesque style used in other Shubert venues.

It has been seventeen years since Robert Desrosiers launched a company to mount his own idiosyncratic choreography and, until recently, to display his own virtuoso technique, a combination of mime, acrobatics, and magical, often grotesque, stage effects.
The recent home season was in that sense true to form, artistically and in other ways.
The company has renewed itself amid major financial and management difficulties, but only mounted two performances in the restored 1,100-seat Edwardian Winter Garden, whereas in the past it might have run ten or more performances in a smaller venue.
