Theatre Guild has planned another fabulous trip to New York City
and the bright lights of Broadway. Spend five days / four nights

Broadway shows, fine dining, Broadway guests and fascinating side

This morning our non-stop flight aboard Midwest
Airlines departs for New York, LaGuardia at 7:10 AM (included).
In New York, we have private transportation to the charming Algonquin
Hotel on West 44th Street in mid-town Manhattan. Here, we will
be steeped in the history of the American theater, New York City
and the writers of the Algonquin Round Table. The hotel is within
walking distance to Times Square, Central Park, Rockefeller Center,
Grand Central Station, The Empire State Building and Fifth Avenue
shopping.
After check-in, the
afternoon is free for you to explore Times Square, have lunch
at the Oyster Bar at Grand Central Station, or just relax in the
inviting Algonquin
lobby, and feel the great vibrations of New York’s past.
Tonight we will gather
for a cocktail reception and dinner at the very exclusive HARVARD
CLUB of NEW YORK. Here, in one of the most impressive spaces in
New York City, you will have a chance to meet your hostess, actress
Dodie Brown and the members on our trip.
After dinner we have

a half-day New York sights & Broadway history tour by private
