The Theatre District is an area in Midtown Manhattan in which are located the many Broadway theatres as well as many other theatres, movie theatres, restaurants, hotels and other places of entertainment. It extends from 42nd Street to 53rd Street, and from Sixth Avenue to Ninth Avenue, and includes Times Square. The Great White Way is the name given to the section of Broadway which runs through the Theatre District.

(Theatre Row, an area on 42nd Street from Ninth Avenue to Eleventh Avenue, which contains many Off- and Off-Off-Broadway theatres, may be considered to be an extension of the Theatre District, although it is not officially a part of it.)
