Broadway Producer Seaview Acquires Second Stage’s Historic Tony Kiser Theater Off Broadway


Seaview, the Tony Award winning production company behind such Broadway shows as Stereophonic, Romeo + Juliet, Once Upon a Mattress and All In and recent Off Broadway stagings of Hold Onto Me Darling and Danny and the Deep Blue Sea, has acquired Manhattan’s historic Tony Kiser Theater, formerly owned by the Second Stage Theater company. […]

Built as a bank in 1927, the building was transformed into Second Stage Theater’s performance space in 1999 by architect Rem Koolhaas in association with Richard Gluckman. Nate Koch, Seaview’s Chief Operating Officer, said, “We are proud to continue the legacy of the Tony Kiser Theatre, and the extraordinary work created there over these past 25 years under the leadership of Second Stage Theater by some of our industry’s most exceptional writers, creatives, performers, and practitioners. “The opening of the Tony Kiser Theatre was one of the most rewarding experiences of my career, and I’m thrilled to return to 305 W 43rd Street, working alongside Greg Nobile and Nate Koch, to launch Studio Seaview, a theater that will be similarly transformative, Off-Broadway and beyond.”
