More information on Apollo Theater
The Apollo Theater is a distinguished and legendary landmark in Harlem. It originally opened as a burlesque hall to an all-white audience in 1913, but in the 1930s it became home to legendary jazz greats like Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald and Duke Ellington. The theater has been restored, and every Wednesday at 7:30pm the stage is opened to amateurs; when heckling is not just common, but expected. There are also musical performances held on other nights. Admission varies. Call for details.
