Broadway's first act was the opening of the Park Theater on October 16, 1798. This was the first public theater on Broadway, located on the southeast corner of Park Row and Nassau Street. It was followed by several other theaters, including the Bowery Theatre, the Astor Opera House, and Niblo's Garden. These early theaters set the stage for the Golden Age of Broadway, which began in the late 1880s and lasted until the 1930s. During this period, plays and musicals were performed at the city's many theaters, including the famous Shubert, Imperial, and Lyceum theaters.
