Finding fame during the
Harlem Renaissance, the Apollo Theater gained national recognition with its constant stream of amazing acts such as Ella Fitzgerald. Mainly noted for launching the careers of African-American performers, stars such as James Brown, Michael Jackson and Lauryn Hill all found their first taste of true success upon the stage at the Apollo.
Although the Apollo went through some tough times in the 60's and 70's, today it still holds the same luster as when it was first making noise in the 30's. A wide variety of big name acts, such as Bill Cosby and Babyface, constantly take to the stage at the Apollo offering a perfect opportunity for first-class entertainment while in New York. Of course, if you're looking for that next big star to catch their shine, the Apollo offers It's Showtime at the Apollo, a nationally televised variety show, and the Apollo Amateur Night.
