The Garden Theatre was a major theatre on Madison Avenue and 27th Street in New York City, New York. The theatre opened on September 27, 1890, and closed in 1925.[1] Part of the second Madison Square Gardencomplex, the theatre presented Broadway plays for two decades and then, as high-end theatres moved uptown to the Times Square area, became a facility for German and Yiddish theatre, motion pictures, lectures, and meetings of trade and political groups.


The Garden Theatre has been erroneously referred to as the Madison Square Garden Theatre. It was not related to a theatre on New York\'s Madison Ave. and 24th St. that was called the Madison Square Theatre from 1879 to 1891 and later called Hoyt\'s Theatre.
