Jolson’s 59th Street Theatre opened in 1921 at 932 Seventh Avenue. Two years later, Constantin Stanislavsky’s Moscow Art Theatre visited Jolson’s with productions including The Cherry Orchard, Three Sisters, and The Brothers Karamazov. Jolson’s 59th Street Theatre was demolished, as the New Century, in 1962.
Is anyone a match for the brash and strong-willed Katherine? The dashing adventurer Petruchio thinks he’s up to the challenge. Two of the sexiest figures in all of world theatre set off sparks in a clash of wills that is as bold as it is uproarious. Shakespeare’s masterful comedic take on the battle of the sexes turns everything we think about love, marriage, and gender on its head.
