The Lambs club
remains a vibrant theater club and continues its historic journey.
The Lambs, Inc., is America's oldest professional theatrical club,
established in London in 1868 and in Manhattan in 1874. During our 140+ year
history The Lambs has had many homes and, in 1905, erected its own clubhouse at
130 West 44th Street in Manhattan, designed by famed architect Stanford White.
At its 44th Street clubhouse The Lambs (often referred to as The Lambs Club) flourished
producing many plays and programs rising into prominence within American Theater
history. Lerner and Loewe first met at the The Lambs; Stalag 17 and Mark Twain
Tonight were first produced in The Lambs' theater.
The building on 44th Street has been gutted and
remodeled to soon to be the new Chatwal Hotel. As part of an agreement the Hotel and
restaurant - which will call itself The Lambs Club - is required to post a disclaimer in their restaurant, and in any and
all advertisements, flyers and web sites.
