BWW Reviews: Tony Winner CHITA RIVERA Recounts Legendary Career in One-Woman Cabaretby Michael L. Quintos - Nov 13, 2011It's always such a wonderful treat to witness a living legend speak candidly and honestly about their experiences, looking back fondly at a multi-decade career that few could even dare replicate.

August Wilson Theatre Gets New ProBax Seatingby BWW News Desk - Jan 11, 2012Last night, American theatergoers experienced for the first time the comfort of the revolutionary ProBax® seating technology, when Jujamcyn Theaters unveiled the August Wilson Theatre's brand new seats. Setting a new standard in comfort, the Broadway house -- currently home to the smash hit Jersey Boys -- is the first American theater to utilize this ergonomic seating.

In a theatrical setting, they allow the audience to focus more freely on the show, while reducing the need to shift and fidget.
