Tickets at Todd Haimes Theatre

The Todd Haimes Theatre was built in 1918 by producers (and brothers) Arch and Edgar Selwyn and was originally named The Selwyn Theatre. Like many other theaters, it fell victim to the economic woes of the Great Depression and became a movie house in the 1930s.

The venue was a movie theater for almost 70 years, until it was purchased by the Roundabout Theatre Company in the late 1990s. After an expensive overhaul, it reopened as The American Airlines Theatre in 2000. In January 2024, the theater was renamed in memory of Roundabout Theatre Company's longtime artistic director and chief executive Todd Haimes.

Story for Travesties

Roundabout Theatre Company’s dazzling new production of Travesties, Tom Stoppard’s 1976 Tony Award-winning Best Play, has arrived—and The New York Times says it’s “ridiculously entertaining.” An artist, a writer and a revolutionary collide in this “giddy, head-spinning triumph” (Entertainment Weekly), a kaleidoscopic thrill-ride through the worlds of art and revolution in 1917 Switzerland…and in the maze of one man’s memory. This “knock-the-wind-out-of-you magnificent revival” (New York Magazine) is “an uproarious work of art, impeccably directed by Patrick Marber” (Newsday). 2017 Olivier nominee Tom Hollander leads the cast, and he is “marvelous” (Time Out New York).

Travesties. New York Stage Review says it’s “possibly the only perfect production now occupying a Broadway theater. Get there fast.”
