This looks like one of many well-written articles from Epicgenius on New York theatres. It is likely to be close to Good Article status, but I will confirm this with a review shortly. simongraham (talk) 13:58, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

This is a stable and well-written article. 97.2% of authorship is by Epicgenius. It is currently ranked B class and a DYK nominee.

The article is of appropriate length, 4,888 words of readable prose, plus a referenced list of notable productions and an infobox.
It is written in a summary style, consistent with relevant Manuals of Style.
Citations seem to be thorough.
There is a risk of WP:CITEKILL. For example the statement "The Schoenfeld is operated by the Shubert Organization." has three citations, although I felt it was probably rather uncontroversial. A similar number of citations is given for the sentence "The Plymouth was originally decorated in a brown, blue, and gold color scheme". Are all this necessary?
References appear to be from reputable sources.
Images have appropriate licensing and public domain or CC tags. Thank you, Epicgenius, for adding your eight contributions to the selection, without which the article would not have anywhere as much impact.
Earwig's Copyvio Detector identifies a 34.6% chance of copyright violation, confirming that there is a low likelihood. The highest correlation is with the theatre's entry in the Landmarks Preservation Commission report.
There is a single missing space which I have corrected.
The grammar in the sentence "A terracotta cornice and a brick parapet runs above the auditorium facade." is ambiguous. Do both the cornice and parapet run above the facade? In which case, I believe the verb should be plural. Can you please check.
There are no other obvious grammar or spelling errors.

@Epicgenius: Please can you take a look at this and ping me with your thoughts. simongraham (talk) 17:10, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
