The New Studio for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert

Design Republic was honored to work with CBS and the Late Show with Stephen Colbert on this breathtaking restoration, which revealed and renewed the otherwise lost grandeur of this neo-gothic Broadway theater’s design.

“I was a little hesitant because I didn’t know anything about the space as a performer,” Colbert says in the video, which was produced by the firm behind the redesign (Design Republic). “I just knew that it had been a Broadway theater and I didn’t know whether we could return it to something that looked different than what Mr. Letterman had … but I also didn’t want to ruin the intimacy that Dave had created.”
