Royal Alexandra Theatre, Historic theatre in Entertainment District, Toronto, Canada
The Royal Alexandra Theatre features 1,244 seats across two balcony levels in a beaux-arts architectural design from the early twentieth century.
Constructed in 1907 by Cawthra Mulock and designed by John M. Lyle, this theatre received royal designation from King Edward VII to honor Queen Alexandra.
The theatre presents numerous Broadway shows and performances, hosting influential artists such as John Gielgud, Mary Pickford, and the Marx Brothers since its opening.
The main level offers automated doors, barrier-free restrooms, and accessible services, while upper levels require stair access to reach the seating areas.
This steel-framed structure stands as North America's oldest continuously operating theatre and retains its status as the sole legally royal theatre on the continent.
