St Lukes Theatre is Permanently CLOSED
ONCE Home to 15 years of Off-Broadway Hits!

From 2006 to 2020, St. Luke’s Theatre comfortably seated 174 in a versatile, air-conditioned space and was home of many long-running hits dating back to Late Night Catechism, Danny and Sylvia:The Danny Kaye Musical and Tony ‘n’ Tina’s Wedding, up to the current shows that share the space:  My Big Gay Italian Wedding, My Big Gay Italian Funeral,  Sistas: The Musical, Black Angels of Tuskegee and The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.

“St. Luke’s Theatre, located across Eighth Avenue from the big Broadway houses, just barely off-Broadway … an elegant proscenium theater space with comfortable chairs on risers and a small stage that still manages to have three wings. The tannish color of woodwork around the walls of the theater contrasts pleasingly with the plum walls and the whole is lit with sconces. It does not try to rival the big Broadway houses for lavishness; the atmosphere is one of intimacy and care.” (via TheaterScene)

 

Once known as “Theatre at St Lukes”, producer Edmund Gaynes created “St Lukes Theatre” in 2006, where it thrived under Gaynes’ leadership. Sadly, the theatre was shuttered by government fiat in 2020.

Due to the forced lock down of all New York Theatres By Mayor deBlasio and Governor Cuomo, St Lukes Theatre, after a successful 15 year run under the ownership of Producer Edmund Gaynes, was forced to close. As of January 11, 2021: St. Lukes Theatre was officially CLOSED.
