Tickets at Todd Haimes Theatre
The Todd Haimes Theatre was built in 1918 by producers (and brothers) Arch and Edgar Selwyn and was originally named The Selwyn Theatre. Like many other theaters, it fell victim to the economic woes of the Great Depression and became a movie house in the 1930s.
The venue was a movie theater for almost 70 years, until it was purchased by the Roundabout Theatre Company in the late 1990s. After an expensive overhaul, it reopened as The American Airlines Theatre in 2000. In January 2024, the theater was renamed in memory of Roundabout Theatre Company's longtime artistic director and chief executive Todd Haimes.

Story for The Real Thing
Tom Stoppard's (The Coast of Utopia) Tony Award®-winning play returns to Broadway in Roundabout Theatre Company’s stirring and sensual production directed by Sam Gold (The Realistic Joneses). Delectably witty and deeply affecting, THE REAL THING takes a daring glimpse at relationships, fidelity, and the passions that often blur our perception of love.
Critics’ Reviews for The Real Thing
"A thoroughly excellent and tuneful version of Tom Stoppard's brilliant play about love and fidelity. If this play is almost 30 years old, its age wasn't visible."
"Ewan McGregor makes an impressive Broadway debut. "
"Maggie Gyllenhaal, making a sensational Broadway debut as Annie, pulls off the especially difficult trick of wrangling all the messy contradictions of her character without losing her glowy sexiness for a minute."
