Overview:
Since 1914, the Shubert Theatre has been a major part of New Haven’s arts scene—and a surprising launchpad for Broadway-bound shows. Known as the “Birthplace of the Nation’s Greatest Hits,” it’s where dozens of iconic productions had their first curtain call before heading to New York.

Why It’s Worth a Stop:
There’s a little magic in the walls here. From A Streetcar Named Desire to The Sound of Music, this historic venue has seen it all. Today, the Shubert hosts national tours, concerts, dance, and community events—keeping the stage just as lively as ever.
