What is an Ambassador Theater?

An Ambassador Theater typically refers to a historic or notable theater venue, most famously the Ambassador Theatre located in New York City, which is known for hosting Broadway shows and other live performances. The Ambassador Theatre opened in 1921 and has a rich history of staging acclaimed musicals and plays.
