Its production of "Death of a Salesman" (starring Brian Dennehy) moved to Broadway and received four Tony awards.

The Albert Ivar Theatre features a proscenium stage and seats 856 people in comfy purple chairs.

This theatre is quite good, and has an excellent selection of plays that it preforms! I've been to several and all of them have been excellent! Right now they have a really good show, a musical by the name of Purlie, which is simply fantastic! I would recommend this theatre to everone! Go see a play today!
