About: Wallack's Theatre

An Entity of Type: WikicatDemolishedTheatresInTheUnitedStates, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Three New York City playhouses named Wallack's Theatre played an important part in the history of American theater, as the successive homes of the stock company managed by actors James W. Wallack and his son, Lester Wallack. During its 35-year lifetime, from 1852 to 1887, that company developed and held a reputation as the best theater company in the country. Each theater operated under other names and managers after (and in one case before) the Wallack company's tenure. All three are demolished.
