The Schoenfeld, originally named the Plymouth, was designed
in 1917 as one of a pair with the Broadhurst Theatre. This 2013
revival restored the theatre to its original delicate beauty.
Restoration was completed, respecting and responding to its
original extant Adam Style design, while integrating new
details harmonious with the original. New elements for seating,
carpet, drapery, and lighting were designed, incorporating motifs
existing in the theatre, as well as additional Adamesque details.
Responding to paint analysis of the original palette, the subtle
application of color was returned in a decorative painting palette
highlighting bas-relief plaster with gold and bronze gilt and
translucent shades of warm and cool umber. Original stencils
were recreated and original chandeliers restored.
