My comment was actually referring to the mention of Frazee in the first paragraph of "Development and early years"; you mentioned him one paragraph earlier, in the paragraph under the main "History" header. Now the first mention gives only his last name while the second mention gives his full name;
391:— advise rephrasing this. First of all, it would probably fit better in the previous sentence since the origin of its name has little to do with the number of seats or its current operator. It's also a bit difficult to understand. Perhaps 999:
It's related to the previous sentence. Manhattan's theater district moved, from Union and Madison Squares, to Times Square during that time. It is also mentioned because the Longacre was part of this development boom.

I think having multiple refs in this section increases the verifiability of the productions (some shows are only recorded by Playbill and the Broadway League, while others are also recorded in the book refs).
1014:
I would put this sentence first then so that it flows chronologically. Also, might be worth noting that the movement was in a northern direction for readers unfamiliar with New York City geography.
456:
I linked it because in previous reviews of other articles, reviewers have pointed out that this could be an uncommon term. As for the cedilla, I think the spelling with diacritics may be a

Removed. According to one source, the book's publication led to a self-fulfilling cycle of the Longacre not hosting successful productions, but I could not find this in other sources.
827:
These are multiple heads of lions, but the design of each head is the same, so you might be correct. However, the fact that there are multiple heads led me to write "lions' heads".
58: 91: 81: 547:
I reworded it. I would not say it's jargon specifically, as it's not rare to see a source saying that a theater houses a show, but I've changed it anyway.

The court would process misdemeanor summonses isued in Midtown, reducing the backlog of cases at the New York City Criminal Court
994:
Manhattan's theater district had begun to shift from Union Square and Madison Square during the first decade of the 20th century.
709:
Yeah. I meant geographically, not chronologically, and it did not occur to me that the sentence could be construed another way.

I left two follow-up comments on this review. But I'm going to go ahead and pass the article now. Congratulations!

entry for this theater. So, it's literally "notable" productions, since every show with an article is listed.
566:— even with the wikilink the use of "legitimate" in this sense is surprising. I'd recommend expanding it to 422:

I won't require this to pass GA but a couple of the images have a slight tilt which should be corrected:
514:
Architectural description of the building, while nice, is in my opinion a bit too detailed for the lead.
766:
Early news articles about the theater described it as having a facade of "gray limestone and terracotta"
126: 17: 1395:
Nice article. My concerns are mostly prose nitpicks which should be easily addressed. Putting on hold.

since you already introduced him. But maybe it would be better to introduce him here instead.

I will fix these soon. Sometimes I hold my camera at a weird angle, which may explain these.
