Queens Theatre in the Park, Theatre in Flushing Meadows Corona Park, Queens, US
The Queens Theatre includes a main stage and a flexible black box theater under the towers of the New York State Pavilion.
The theatre opened in 1964 as part of the New York World's Fair with a circular design by architect Philip Johnson for film presentations.
The venue presents musicals, dance performances, live radio plays, and hosts independent film festivals throughout the annual season.
A free shuttle service connects the theatre to Mets-Willets Point Subway Station, with additional access via Long Island Expressery and Grand Central Parkway.
The 2009 renovation added a reception hall called the nebula and increased the main auditorium capacity to 600 seats.
