I watched Icke's adaptation of Oresteia here. The play turned out fantastic, in part due to the scale of the venue, which added drama to a lot of the effects and enabled a lot of interesting interactions. The building interior felt elegant and the staff were courteous and helpful.

This place is unlike the Broadway theaters, it’s inside the armory warehouse and very large space converted to the theater, the seats are build up levels with armchairs, seats are comfortable and the levels are high enough so you don’t have peoples head blocking your view. There’s not really a bad seat in the theater because everyone is facing front sitting in square space. The public facility are also very nice, dark wood decor with large oil paintings of military figures second floor has gender mutual bathroom and lower floor has another smaller bathroom. The room to get drink is also very cute like a library.

A beautiful venue with antique touches and modern finishes. I loved the industrial feel of the bleachers, and the gigantic restroom that easily accommodated the intermission rushes. The creative take on Hamlet was also highly entertaining. My only gripe was the comfort of the chairs; they were pretty unforgiving, so part way through the 3 hour show I started shifting around in discomfort.

Questions & Answers

Are all of the artworks displayed in the Armory itself, or are some on display in individual galleries? I ask because this will be my first time to visit.

The armory is not an art gallery but it features amazing old artwork on its hallway walls and within its various rooms. They do have art shows during the year where you can view and purchase art. Check the schedule on the website.

Is there a design show there now?

I know this is now an arts center, but is the name reflective of the British artillery park nearby from the early days of the Revolution? I am reading about Nathan Hale and he was hung near Dove Tavern which my source says was near 3rd and 66th.

The Park Avenue Armory was built in 1880. Locally based NY city armory. The location might be close, but there'd be no direct connection with the Am. Revolutionary period or Nathan Hale's demise in 1776.

Definitely. It has a certain Old World charm and grandness. I've only been in the evening, but it must get great daylight.
