Bijou Theatre, Broadway theater in Manhattan, United States

The Bijou Theatre stood at 209 West 45th Street as a 603-seat performance venue featuring French architectural elements and ornate interior design details.

Constructed by the Shubert family in 1917, the Bijou Theatre operated for 65 years until its demolition in 1982 for the construction of Marriott Marquis Hotel.

The theater presented works from international playwrights including Chekhov, Ibsen, Pirandello, Greene, O'Neill, and Saroyan throughout its operational period.

The theater maintained its small capacity format, making it suitable for intimate theatrical productions and allowing direct engagement between performers and audience members.

The Bijou Theatre screened The Red Shoes film continuously for 107 weeks from October 1948 to November 1950, establishing a notable exhibition record.
