Ethel Barrymore Theatre

Manhattan

Race, by Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winner David Mamet, is now playing at the Barrymore Theatre. In 1928, the Shuberts offered to build actress Ethel Barrymore a theater and commission a play for her to premiere in her namesake house. The Barrymore is the last theater producers Lee and J.J. Shubert built. Designed by Herbert Krapp, its exterior was modeled on public baths in Rome, with a two-story terra-cotta grillwork screen. The interior combines Elizabethan, Mediterranean and Adamsesque styles.
