The first Broadway revival of The Ritz opened in previews in May 1983 at Xenon, formerly Henry Miller's Theatre, but closed after a single regular performance on May 2, 1983, and two weeks of previews. The play was directed by Michael Bavar and featured Taylor Reed as Gaetano, Casey Donovan as Brick, and Holly Woodlawn as Googie Gomez, and Mr. America Tom Terwilliger as one of the bathhouse patrons. This was the only legitimate production to play at this theatre while it was the nightclub Xenon; a ticket to The Ritz also granted admission to dance in the disco after the evening's performance.
