Theatre in the Foyer

Step inside the Grand Foyer of the United Palace for a theatrical double bill celebrating the magic of live performance.

Featuring two new pieces by Uptown Manhattan artists, Theatre in the Foyer brings together heart, history, and theatrical imagination in one unforgettable evening.

Uptown Books, by Adrián Miranda, is a warm and funny musical play set inside a Washington Heights bookstore, where a wonderfully quirky group of strangers finds connection, community, and unexpected joy among the shelves.

Your Queen Presents: Petrus, by Edu Díaz, is a darkly comic solo performance in which Queen Catherine de’ Medici reveals the story of Petrus Gonsalvus, the Canary Islander whose extraordinary life inspired Beauty and the Beast.

Two new works. One historic space. An evening of Uptown theatre.
