THEATRE
BAM HARVEY THEATER
651 Fulton St Brooklyn
(718) 636-4100 www.bam.org
Former Executive Producer Harvey Lichtenstein
discovered what would become the BAM Harvey
Theater when looking for a new kind of venue
for Peter Brook’s eight-hour production of The
Mahabharata. The awardwinning renovation
that followed, completed in 1987, beautifully
preserved the deconstructed feels of the
space, resulting in a striking theater with the
6 DIME BEST OF BROOKLYN 2021 • WINNERS GUIDE • BESTOFBK.COM
ambience of a timeless ruin. Retaining original
architectural elements, the theater’s design
maintained an aged look that creates a visceral
bridge between the past and the future. In 1999,
the Majestic was renamed in honor of retiring
leader Harvey Lichtenstein. The Harvey has since
served as the unique setting for major stage and
broadcast productions.
