Ambassador Theatre Event Tickets

Witness a memorable live performance with Ambassador Theatre tickets. The Broadway theater is located in New York, N.Y., and was opened in 1921 by the Shubert Brothers. Featuring a design by architect Herbert Krapp, its most notable details are its hexagonal auditorium and the 18th-century neoclassical Adam-style motif, a hallmark of Knapp’s designs. The Shuberts sold the venue and for some time, the venue operated as a CBS broadcasting studio in the late 1930s and as a movie house during the mid-1940s theatre. By the 1950s, the Ambassador returned to presenting theatrical events including musicals like Dreamgirls, The Great Gatsby, You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown and more.

The Ambassador was one of four theaters that opened during the post-World War I boom, including the Eugene O'Neill Theater, the Forrest Theater and the Walter Kerr Theater. The theatre's interior, which has been designated as a city landmark, features an auditorium that can accommodate 1,125 patrons with theater-style seating in the orchestra, front mezzanine and rear mezzanine.
