History[[edit] | [edit source]]

In November 1930, the theatre hosted the New York Revue. Around this time members of staff had been said to have gone missing, due to the Daleks running their Final Experiment. (TV: Daleks in Manhattan)

The Tenth Doctor faced off the Human Dalek Army and two members of the Cult of Skaro in the main room of the theatre. Dalek Sec, in human form, sacrificed himself here to stop Dalek Thay exterminating the Doctor.

Dalek Jast and Dalek Thay were both destroyed here by the Human Dalek Army when the Doctor revealed that some Time Lord had got into their DNA when he got in the way of the lightning strike used to power the Final Experiment. (TV: Evolution of the Daleks)

The theatre had a main stage and dressing rooms. It also had a resourceful backstage prop room which, amongst other things, was equipped with a gun, a spear and a statue of a pirate. The backstage prop room also had a manhole cover which led down to the sewer system where the Daleks were controlling their operations. (TV: Daleks in Manhattan, Evolution of the Daleks)
