Time Out says

Formerly the Virginia Theatre (and before that the Guild Theatre), this 1,228-seat space was renamed after the late, great African-American playwright in 2005. The current occupant is the long-running Jersey Boys, but in previous decades, the site was home to Eugene O’Neill’s mammoth Mourning Becomes Electra (1931), Clifford Odets’s Golden Boy (1952) and the musical City of Angeles (1989).

What’s on

Paranormal Activity

Levi Holloway's first stab at a Broadway horror play, 2023's Grey House, didn't scare up very much excitement, but now he returns to the haunted well with another spooky offering, this one set in the universe of the Paranormal Activity film franchise (though not adapted from any of the movies). The production—directed by Felix Barrett (Sleep No More) and featuring illusions by Chris Fisher (Stranger Things: The First Shadow)—has been a well-received hit in London's West End; after numerous engagements across the U.S., it now arrives on Broadway starring Travis A. Knight and Cher Álvarez as an American husband and wife who move to London to escape the evil spirit she believes has chased her all her life.
