Nokia Theater Update

“Betting $21 million that New York City needs a performance hall that’s bigger than a ballroom but smaller than a music hall, a corporate concert promoter, A.E.G. Live, is opening a new, midsize theater in Times Square devoted to rock, comedy and wonders of cellphone technology.

The schedule for the hall, the Nokia Theater Times Square at 1515 Broadway, at 44th Street, was announced yesterday. It includes an eclectic roster of performers, among them the creepy hardcore band Slipknot, the cross-generational star Steve Winwood, the brotherly teenage pop trio Hanson and the sarcastic comedian Norm Macdonald. The theater’s official opening is scheduled for mid-September, with the first confirmed act – the punk band Social Distortion – doing four nights starting Oct. 1.” [NY Times]
