Palace Theatre – Stage of a Hundred Ghosts

New York · USA · Teater · Uhygge 3/5

The acrobat who plunged from his high wire in 1935 still swings from the rafters and screams – the Palace is said to hold over a hundred ghosts, with Judy Garland guarding her private door.

Playing the Palace was vaudeville's ultimate dream, and the 1913 theatre is said to have collected more resident spirits than any other Broadway house – rumor counts over a hundred. Most famous is acrobat Louis Borsalino, who plummeted to the stage during a Casting Pearls routine in 1935. On late nights when the auditorium is empty, a figure is said to swing through the rigging above the stage before a long scream echoes and the shape plunges – an eternal replay of the fall. Whoever watches him complete the dive is said to invite misfortune. By a door near the orchestra pit, built specifically for Judy Garland's entrances during her triumphant concert runs, staff sense her presence. A white dress in the mezzanine and a cello-playing figure in the pit round out the house company.
