The 750-seat neo-Renaissance style theater was designed by the architect Herbert J. Krapp for the Shubert Organization.

[1] It opened on December 26, 1921, with a performance of Face Value, a comedy by Laurence Grass.

Although it had some popular productions, such as the revue La Chauve-Souris and the Aaron Hoffman play Give and Take, the venue was one of the Shuberts' less successful locations.

The final theatrical performance at the venue was a production of Henrik Ibsen's The Wild Duck.
