Summary

Description The Orpheum Theatre at 126 Second Avenue between St. Marks Place and East 7th Street in the East Village neighborhood of lower Manhattan, New York City. Stomp opened here in 1994, and had done over 5,000 performances since. The theatre was the Players Theatre, a Yiddish playhouse at the time when Second Avenue was referred to as the "Jewish Rialto" because of the many Yiddish theatres along it, but by the 1920s it was showing films. It converted back to dramatic productions in 1958. Before it was a theatre, Elizabeth Blackwell established the Women's medical College at this address. The site may have been a concert garden as early as the 1880s. {Source: [1],[2])
