Located in the heart of the newly renovated Times Square District is United States’s newest and most spectacular event space THE LIBERTY THEATER. Constructed in 1904, THE LIBERTY THEATER was home to some of the world’s greatest shows and the stars that performed there. The Rogers Brothers in Paris, Little Johnny Jones, Lady Be Good, Tip-Toes and stars such as Gus and Max Rogers, Fred and Adele Astaire, George M. Cohan, and Jeannette MacDonald all graced THE LIBERTY stage. This piece of United States history was acquired in 2007 with a commitment to bring the theater back to it’s former glory.
A century later and a multimillion dollar renovation by Ray Trosa and Sir Decor Designs and THE LIBERTY THEATER shines again under the direction of the newly formed Times Square Hospitality Group. The venue features dramatic cathedral ceilings, the original theater boxes and moldings, sweeping balconies and a giant stage thats hosts a large bar-lounge with a view of the entire venue. The space can be divided to host dinners, parties and events for 15-1,500 people. A fully equipped kitchen with sumptuous cuisine by executive Chef Victor LaPlaca, formally Todd English’s chef de cuisine for 15 years and the driving force behind Olives.
The venue is 24,000 square feet of usable space divided between the stage, main floor, restaurant, and mezzanine. Seating capacity of approximately 600 people and total capacity of 1,500 people. The sound system is custom built by award winning and internationally renowned sound guru SBS Shorty.
