Apollo Theater in Harlem, NY

The Apollo theater is located in Harlem. Harlem is a neighborhood of Manhattan, long known as a major African American cultural and business center. Although the name is sometimes reckoned as comprising the whole of upper Manhattan, traditionally Harlem is bounded on the south by East 96th Street and west of Fifth Avenue by Central Park, on the west by Morningside Heights, then along Broadway near Riverside Church to the Hudson River, on the north by 155th Street and Coogan's Bluff, and the east by the East River and Harlem River.
Apollo theater is a place where thousands of young artists have stepped out into the spotlight and launched their careers. A place "where stars are born and legends are made." The legendary Apollo Theater is so much more than an historic landmark. It is a source of pride and a symbol of the brilliance of American artistic achievement. From 1934 when the Apollo first introduced its world famous Amateur Night which launched the careers of legendary artists like Ella Fitzgerald, James Brown, Michael Jackson, D'Angelo and Lauryn Hill, the Apollo has maintained its position as the nation's most popular arena for emerging and established black and Latino performers.
