After losing custody in a messy divorce, he creates the kindly alter ego of Scottish nanny Euphegenia Doubtfire in a desperate attempt to stay in their lives. As his new character takes on a life of its own, Mrs. Doubtfire teaches Daniel more than he bargained for about how to be a father. A hilarious and heartfelt story about holding onto your loved ones against all odds, Mrs. Doubtfire is the musical comedy we need right now — one that proves we’re better together.” Additional COVID-19 Information: For Performances Through October 31, 2021 *Information from Broadway Group Sales “The Broadway League announced on July 30, 2021 that the owners and operators of all 41 Broadway theatres in New York City will require vaccinations for audience members, as well as performers, backstage crew, and theatre staff, for all performances through October 2021. Masks will also be required for audiences inside the theatre, except while eating or drinking in designated locations. Under the policy, guests will need to be fully vaccinated with an FDA or WHO authorized vaccine in order to attend a show and must show proof of vaccination at their time of entry into the theatre with their valid ticket. “Fully vaccinated” means the performance date must be at least 14 days after the second dose of a two-dose COVID-19 vaccine, or at least 14 days after a single-dose COVID-19 vaccine. Exceptions are being made for children under 12 and people with a medical condition or closely held religious belief that prevents vaccination. These guests must provide proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR test taken within 72 hours of the performance start time, or a negative COVID- 19 antigen test taken within 6 hours of the performance start time.” ** The above policy will be reviewed again in September for shows after October. In addition, at this time masks are required on the motor coach except while eating and drinking. I wanted everyone to be aware of the possible measures that might still be in place during our trip in December. .

  • PARAMOUNT HOTEL, 235-245 West 46Th Street, Manhattan Built 1927-28; Thomas W
    Landmarks Preservation Commission November 17, 2009, Designation List 423 LP-2342 PARAMOUNT HOTEL, 235-245 West 46th Street, Manhattan Built 1927-28; Thomas W. Lamb, architect Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1018, Lot 6 On June 23, 2009, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Paramount Hotel and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 9). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. There were two speakers in favor of designation including a representative of the owner. There were no speakers in opposition. Summary The Paramount Hotel was constructed in 1927-28 as part of an extensive building and expansion drive in the Times Square theater district during that period. One of a very few hotels designed by noted theater architect Thomas Lamb, this building’s design reflects the theatrical nature of the neighborhood. New York in the 1920s was a popular tourist destination and this hotel was one of several built in the area that was intended to appeal to visitors coming to New York for its extensive night life. This hotel provided over 600 rooms, restaurants, lounges and a well-known nightclub in the basement. Thomas Lamb designed a large number of theaters in the area, particularly movie houses, giving them a variety of decorative treatments that suggested the fantastical interiors and variety of entertainments provided inside. Lamb was a classically- trained architect, able to use a wide-ranging architectural vocabulary geared toward the specific conditions of the building.
