The biggest news around here right now is the construction going on at the David H. Koch Theater (formerly the New York State Theater). It's not every day that a major performing arts venue undergoes such a dramatic makeover, so we'll be updating you throughout the summer and fall on the progress of the construction and giving you a peek into the hard hats-only sections of the theater.
Right now, construction crews are in the process of taking all of the seats out of the theater. Eventually we'll have brand new seats and two aisles in the orchestra section.
