New Victory Theatre, Children's theater in Theater District, Manhattan, US.
The New Victory Theatre is a children's theater in the Theater District featuring three levels of seating in red-and-gold tones that hold around 500 spectators. The space combines early 20th-century architecture with a modern, family-friendly design throughout.
Oscar Hammerstein I built the building in 1900 as the Republic Theatre, designed by architect Albert Westover with a Venetian-inspired brick and brownstone facade. The structure then underwent major transformations as a burlesque venue and movie house before becoming dedicated to young audiences in 1995.
The theater presents international performances including plays, dance shows, and puppet theater pieces specifically curated for young audiences and families. Visitors experience productions that bring together different cultures and art forms on the same stage.
The location sits on West 42nd Street and is easily accessible by public transportation in the heart of Manhattan's Theater District. The building includes restrooms, lockers for personal items, and concession stands in the basement level.
The theater occupied the same location as other venues and went through a series of transformations that changed its appearance and purpose. This history of reinvention makes it a rare example of a space that completely dedicated itself to the audience it serves today.
