Great theatre! Beautiful inside, quite big, polite staff. I watched Shakespeare’s King Lear with legendary Glenda Jackson here and was very satisfied.

Absolutely fantastic show. Was chosen for an effect, and the feeling of that alone was worth 10x the ticket price.Derren is a master of his craft. Brilliant performance, beginning to end. It’s touching, funny and completely unbelievable.

Small theatre so every seat in the house is a good one!

Saw Derren Brown’s The Secret here and the show was amazing and mesmerizing. The big “secret” to the show is truly a surprise until the end and we left dumbfounded, likely like the rest of the audience trying to make sense of what we had just watched and witnessed. It’s an entertaining, thought-provoking, and ultimately head-scratching piece of work. I’d see it again.Our seats were in the right orchestra section towards the rear but it’s a smaller theatre so still very close to the stage. Nice theatre overall.

Great theatre! Small and intimate. We saw the Secret which I had no idea what we were going to see. Was an amazing experience!

The theater was very huge and the sounds were excellent. The only difficulty are the seatings. Its very hard to get to your seat as there is barely any space for your legs. The balcony had a bar which blocked some of the stage if you sat in the front row in the balcony.

Its a beautiful old New York theater where there really isnt a bad seat in the house.

Very nice theatre. Not small or huge, perfect size. We saw Derren Brown Secret. Very good show!!! You will be brainwashed from the first moment to the end. Staff is friendly and will guide your seat.

Great show by Derren Brown. Totally rip off prices at the bar. No prices shown and then when they have poured the drinks you get told the prices. $64 for 2 large wines!! Bonkers.

Came for Derren Brown: Secret show in previews (absolutely 5 stars).The Cort Theatre is on the smaller side of Broadway theatres. It is the perfect venue for any show that requires a more intimate setting between the performer(s) and the audience.

Saw Derren Browns Secret. Awesome as expected. So happy shows on Broadway are so close to home in PA. Well be returning for other shows in the future!

Nice and large theatre. They have two bars. The staff was nice. They taught us tips on getting autographs. For example, there was a bit of drizzle but I didn’t use my umbrella, the security guard told me to cover the play bill because it would be hard to write on a wet surface.

Theater built in 1900s, so certainly seen its age. We were in the balcony where actors,cwho didnt seem to be miked, were hard to hear.

Its a really lovely theater.The arms have fixed arm rests. I am 510 and a womens size 16/18. It was tight and I had to sit with my arms crossed the whole time.

Came to see Derren Brown: Secret (Amazing show, been a long time fan and loved it!)The theater is smaller, but the viewing angle seems ideal from every seat. The staff were exceptional, very polite and patient with the big crowds that congest the walkways during intermission.

We went to go see The Secret by Darren Brown. The show itself was really entertaining, and everything I thought it would be. Without spoiling anything, it lives up to its name.

Another classic Broadway theater.The current play, a drama, KING LEAR, is a must see with Glenda Jackson playing the king. Any Shakespeare fan my find this intellectually challenging due to its setting being a mix of King Lears time and the time when machine guns are the weapons of choice. I enjoyed this enough to want to go and see it again! Glenda Jackson, at 83, outperforms every other actor of any age.

Beautiful theater. Nice venue to see live dramatic performances.

Seriously, some of the most uncomfortable if not simply painful seats on Broadway. There is much to like about a small theater but my butt was numb and my back in spasms.

Saw Derren Brown perform here. its an intimate theater with great atmosphere. had a great time watching the show. would definitely return and see it again!

Beautiful and intimate. Perfect for King Lear

Phenomenal! This was a fantastic experience. All the staff and ushers were so nice and helpful! Cant recommend this theater enough!

Beautiful theater. As usual for Broadway the seats are way too narrow and close to each other, with above the average for Broadway discomfort. It is really difficult to sustain a two hour show on such seats. I wonder when Broadway will finally do something about the comfort of their seats

The Minutes by Tracy Letts on Broadway with Armie Hammer, Tracy Letts and 9 other excellent actors. Opening is 15th March 2020. Limited run 16 Weeks Only! Armie Hammer is like a Young John Malkovich on stage!

A very fun, on the smaller side, theater. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The seats are comfortable and not as close together as in some theaters I’ve been to.

Super great intimate theater. Cant recommend more highly. #corttheather

Theatre historic. Enjoyed King Lear with Glenda Jackson and Ruth Wilson here.

Interesting theatre, but they keep it too hot in there.

Great staff, cheerful and helpful. Good price for tickets for a popular show. The reduced stars are for physical limits of the building.Like many theatres Ive been in New York, theres no foyer so youre spending the interval in your seat or in a crowded landing where they serve drinks.Number and location of toilets amazingly small for a large number of patrons who will almost all want to use them at the same time.Lastly, and I admit this is not my area of expertise, but I cant believe this place meets fire regulations. The main stairwells open into landings, which look like unprotected lobby designation, efficient directly connect to the seating areas. Distinct shortage of doors between any of these areas. Im happy to be proven wrong and even happier not to have to put it to the test.

A nice theater, went to see the Secret show. Had a good fun time.

Have seen a few shows here. Always entertaining. Plus, theres a tiny womens bathroom hidden away on balcony level. Never a line!

Saw Darren Brown’s astounding show, Secret. Just go. You’ll be mystified, dazzled, and delighted. What a genius. Bravo!!!!

Really lovely vibe here - feel free to dress up in your 1920s gear

I saw The Magic Show with Doug Henning here years ago. I have great memories of being with my mother and and sister enjoying the magic show as a child. Im glad it remains as a historic theater in this ever-changing world.

Intimate theatre with good viewing all around. Offers complimentary wifi as well so thats a bonus. Warning: only three stalls in the ladies bathroom downstairs!

Loved the quaint theater. Loved the production of M Butterfly.

Nice and small. Great bathroom facilities and great employees

Derren Brown’s « Secret » is the greatest show on earth. Period.

I saw King Lear at the Cort today. It was a fabulous play acted perfectly with original Philip Glass music. The theater is clean, comfortable and has a very clean handicap accessible bathroom.

Great venue, good visibility of the stage from all seats. Beautiful theater.

One of the great, more intimate Broadway theaters. Best for dramatic productions. A bit too small for musicals or large scale productions. Saw Glenda Jackson do King Lear here. At 82, she gave a tour de force performance of the role.

While I loved the show we saw - if you are over 5 foot 10 inches or over 150 pounds -- you are likely to be super uncomfortable in these seats. Paying hundreds of dollars to be entertained yet crazy uncomfortable is perhaps just something I will never understand.

Caught Derren Browns Secret. Very good.

Nice small theatre. The seats are bit old and uncomfortable, but not the worst. We had a great time seeing Derren Brown here.

Its a little dated and could use some work. The show was good and thats what mattered and took away from the torn seats.

Lovely smallish theatre, good sound and sight lines. Saw a one-man show here and couldnt have wished for a finer venue for such a show.

I love the Cort Theater. It’s a small theater that has housed wonderfully big hearted productions.Just saw “The New One” starring Mike Birbiglia, a hugely talented comedian, actor and storyteller whom I cannot say enough great things about. Just try to see him before his show closes. You’ll thank me later.

Saw Derren Brown’s “Secret” - truly a phenomenal experience. Would see it again!

Saw Mike Birbiglia in The New One. Great historical theater

King Lear was amazing. 5 starsThe old building with super minimal space for each person. Restrooms on the first floor are nice and clean. 4 stars

Beautiful building great show

Exits stairway is narrow. But the performance of Derren Brown was exceptional.

Lovely venue. Great show

Staff was great friendly and helpful

We went to see Darren Brown Live. He was amazing and made our night. Drinks were overpriced for the size of them but we had expected that (only reason it lost a star!)

Nice theater. Saw The Secret, which was great.

We saw Derren BrownMust see Hes fabulous

Old seats and one small bathroom. The lines are rediculous.

We decided to see Glenda Jackson in King Lear before couple of months! The show itself was breathtaking i couldnt believe how good it is! However there were couple of small issues with the theatre itself! The seats were pretty tiny and we were in the Orchestra side which was obstructed and we couldnt see few things!But overall great experience with friendly staff!

The theatre itself is small and clogs up quickly with a small amount of people. We saw Derren Brown who was great

Gorgeous theater, just saw King Lear but I remember seeing War Paint and others here. This theater has class, taste and history, what more can you ask of an exquisite Broadway theater.

Good acoustics. Narrow aisles

Great little theater and a terrific show, Derren Browns Secret is marvelous

Lots of stairs did not see an elevator. Great view from the Mezzanine Row A.

Came to see “Darren brown secret” show. Great theater not too big

A jewel of a theater in the heart of Broadway. It was a pleasure and a privilege to see the magnificent Glenda Jackson as King Lear. I have no complaints at all. The theater and the staff were fantastic.As for some technical details: This theater is one of the few remaining original golden era theaters. It is over 100 years old. It is very lovely and absolutely worth the experience, but its important to keep a few things in mind before you go.Wheelchair and other accessable resources are limited. This building is a National Landmark and built decades before such vital standards existed.That said, there are wheelchair seating options and the venue is very much able and willing to accommodate you as much as they can.The seating is smaller than modern-day standards. The seats themselves are very comfortable - I have a spinal injury and I was able to sit for a 3.5 hour performance with very little problem. But the leg room is the real issue - there just isnt much of it to be had. Be aware that if you have issues with your legs, get an aisle seat or a seat in the front row of any section.Also, I arrived early because I knew there were several flights of stairs to deal with and I wanted to talk to the attendants about where I could stand quietly if I was in too much pain to sit. Turned out there was ample space literally right behind my seat, and they were very agreeable as long as I didnt block the aisle, which I would never do, and which sadly they have to combat multiple times every performance. Fire codes and common courtesy, people! Stay out of the aisles!The stairs: four pretty easy flights with handrails to the balcony, and there are facilities on every level, I believe. I was delighted to discover bathrooms on the balcony level, because my research had indicated that was not the case.Speaking of balcony: This is a small venue of 1,092 seats. Every single seat is a great seat. Dont you worry. $35 to see Glenda Jackson as Lear on Broadway for my birthday? YES PLEASE.So dont worry about money. Go to Broadway. You can do it. And if you can, see something grand and historic at The Cort.A perfect evening. It could only have been better if I had gotten to shake Ms Jacksons hand.A huge thanks to the great staff, who are always underappreciated but who really make the whole thing run. I see you. Youre awesome. Thanks so much for making my experience so wonderful.

Great theater. Very comfortable. But ladies room on my had two stalls as did the one on the third floor.

Went to watch King Lear. Such a lovely place. Staffs were so friendly. I highly recommend this place to go with family.

Pour a very large wine ..great seats and view

A charming theater, small enough so that a patron has an adequate sight line regardless of the seat. I loved my seat in the first row of the balcony, and the ticket price of $60 was reasonable.

Saw King Lear. Nice, old theatre. Steep balcony though! Ushers and security were superfriendly, you have the chance to meet the performers at the Backstage after the show ends. Should be on the bucket-list for a Tourist.

One of the few on the East side an old hem. Great place to see a drama or comedy or even a chamber musical.

Good show, incredibly expensive drinks, $38 for a large white wine!

Run dont walk to see Glenda Jackson in King Lear my God in heaven that is sensational

If you are getting a (grossly overpriced) soft drink, make sure you get it early because refills are free.

Small but pretty theater with all the old charm

One of the many Broadway theatres. Its rather small and cozy. Whether you like the performance or not its still a New York experience. Live it!

This place is nice, I cant say that it distinguishes itself above and beyond other theaters Ive been to though. Clean and classy like its supposed to be.

Went to see The New One. Great show! There wasnt a bad seat in the house, and its TRUE as we sat in the Mezzanine in the last row. The parking in the area is expensive, so use mass transit to get there. Theres plenty to do in the area as far as restaurants and activities. Subways are nearby. The theater district is busy at all times of the day and night. Have fun!

Seats are tired and worn out making it feel like the seats was formerly airline middle seats. Part of the theater experience should not include ones legs falling asleep.

Its the old Merv Griffin theatre and its rather small, but because of that, the balcony view is decent

The Cort is a nice old theater, the seats too narrow and no legroom, but fine for 2 1/2 hours.

Really beautiful if you get the cheap seats be prepared to walk several flights of stairs. Still great view from uptop.

Beautiful small theater! Saw an incredible performance of King Lear

Best Broadway shows happens right here

Saw Glenda Jackson in King Lear. Beautiful performance in a beautiful venue. Front row balcony was spectacular.

Lear with Glenda Jackson: Amazing. Jackson was brilliant; Ruth Wilson too!

Derren Browns Secret was outstanding!

Attended for The Womanly Arts Experience weekend. Facility is gorgeous and staff is very helpful. Food court has a vast variety of choices. They also have a charging station which came in handy since we had to leave straight from there back to the train station.

Good seating everywhere in this theater

Nice theatre. Lots of steps but the details of the place is great.

Great room, fun show.

The secret was amazing and etertaining

Lovely theatre, and the staff were just amazing!! So fr ki end li y, funny, and helpful!!

One of the nicer theaters Ive been to. Saw This is Our Youth and had no problem seeing or hearing the cast. The inside is immaculate. The set was extremely detailed to the point it felt like I was looking at the back of real apartments. Unfortunately seats were steep with limited leg room.

Amazing. It was such a great experience. The theater is gorgeous

Great place to watch a broadway show

I really enjoyed being at the Cort Theatre. The theatre was clean and the staff were very helpful. The seating was comfortable and I doubt there is a bad seat in the house.

Very nice theater and seats a little roomier than other theaters

Very cool venue. Saw Mike Birgiglias The New One and loved every minute.
