ABOUT THIS THEATRE
Description
The historic Shubert Theatre is a not-for profit arts, education, and community institution serving the people of Connecticut and in particular the City of New Haven. As a public resource, the Shubert presents a wide array of programs to a diverse community. The theater itself is the crown jewel of downtown New Haven. Opened in 1914 before "talkies," television, or rock concerts, Shubert Theatre was built for the live theater experience: intimate, personal and immediate. While it now has a large lobby and comfortable new seats, it is a real Broadway house, where the magic of theater, music and dance come alive. The Shubert, New Haven is owned and operated by CAPA, a Connecticut Not-For-Profit Organization.
