The original Circle in the Square Theatre was founded in 1951 by producer Theodore Mann along with Jose Quintero, Jason Wingreen, Aileen Cramer, Ed Mann and Emily Stevens. At that time, their location was in Greenwich Village, New York, New York. Unable to acquire a theater license at the time, the venue hosted cabaret, and the group's actors and production staff served as waiters if anyone in the audience insisted on purchasing a beverage. The theater moved to a historic building - which is now The Market NYC - several years later and moved again once more before ending up in today's current location on 50th Street.

After the Uris Brothers tore down the famous Capitol Movie House in 1970 to build the Paramount Plaza, architect Alan Sayles designed the new Circle in the Square Theatre after the theaters of the ancient Greeks and Romans. It has remained as one of two theaters inside of the plaza ever since. On Nov. 15, 1972, the theater opened for its very first Broadway production, a revival of Mourning Becomes Electra. The theater is also home to the Circle in the Square Theatre School, an independent non-profit that has been training Broadway actors and actresses since 1961. Circle in the Square Theatre is located at 235 West 50th Street between Broadway and Eighth Street in midtown Manhattan. The theater, which has a capacity of 623 seats, is below street level, complete with an in-house bar, and is one of the only two Broadway houses with a thrust stage.
