Welcome to Buckles Blog. This site is for the discussion of Circus History all over the world.
This Shubert theater was built in 1921 Due to the extremely small plot size it was created with both the interior auditorium & stage area on the diagonal Very strange indeed as little offstage left or right wings & with only a small upstage center offstage area useable This situation limits what productions can fit in these reduced conditions The 1100 seats are accommodated in a unique pattern on 3 levels however The current production of "Chicago" is presented as a concert version with few if any moving parts Hard to explain the total size of these required to accomplish it
The Ambassador has kept it's original name from inception

The current production of "Chicago"
is presented as a concert version
with few if any moving parts
Hard to explain the total size of
these required to accomplish it
