The Beaumont—excuse me, the Vivian Beaumont—is also an -er, previously Broadway's only.

SirPupNYC you are correct about the Vivian Beaumont - as well as the Mitzi Newhouse. Both are designated as 'theaters' by LCT, which is also, Lincoln Center Theater. Although every other site I have found calls them 'theatres'.

The Public is a 'theater' and all of their venues are 'theaters'. It's Second Stage Theater.

But it's The Manhattan Theatre Club; The Signature Theatre (Linney Theatre, Diamond Theatre , etc); The Vineyard Theatre; Roundabout Theatre with American Airlines Theatre, Stephen Sondheim Theatre etc;

My favorite is Jujamcyn Theaters - resolutely using the American spelling. But all of their venues use the other spelling - Neil Simon Theatre, St James Theatre, Walter Kerr Theatre etc

In American English, ER is currently the correct spelling. Note however that proper names do not have "correct" spellings. It makes perfect sense to me that Second Stage, a company focused on American plays, would choose to name itself and its constituent parts with the American rather than Anglo spelling. It can also be noted that I have chosen to use RE though it is not correct, for personal reasons.

It should be noted that IBDB lists it as "Theatre," but they are wrong.
