Purchased at auction, the Walter Kerr Theater was the first defunct theater in Manhattan to undergo gut rehabilitation and restoration to legitimate theater use. The theater’s facade, interior plaster details, frescoes, filigree and ornate boxes were returned to their original grandeur. The stage was reconstructed and the newest technology applied to upgrade support facilities such as ticket services, lounge areas, dressing rooms, sound, mechanical and lighting systems.
