Learn More About Boston Shows
Boston’s thriving theater scene is centered around its Theater District. Most theaters in Boston are on one of three streets: Washington, Tremont, and Boylston. Fun fact: theater was actually banned by the Puritans who originally settled Boston. Despite the city’s rich colonial history, plays could not be performed in Boston until 1792, and the city’s first theater was not built until the following year. Broadway shows often come to Boston’s Theater District, and many shows often make their way to Broadway after performing in Boston.
The Boston Opera House (also known as Citizens Bank Opera House) is one of the District’s major venues. The vaudeville-themed building opened in 1929 and originally played motion pictures and vaudeville shows. The theater was renovated and completely restored in 2002 after closing for a long period. The modern-day Boston Opera House opened in 2004 with a six month run of The Lion King. The venue has been going strong ever since and is one of the busiest theaters in New England. The Boston Ballet also performs regular shows, including a holiday production of The Nutcracker, at the Opera House.
Also in Boston’s Theater District is the Charles Playhouse, which was built in 1839 and originally used as a church. Later in the 1800s, the building became Boston’s first synagogue, and in the years before the Depression, was used as a speakeasy. The building took its current name 1957, when it was purchased by The Actors Company of Boston. The Charles Playhouse premiered Shear Madness at its cabaret theater in 1980. The show has been running in Boston ever since—it’s the longest running non-musical play in America—and has been performed over 13,000 times. The Charles Playhouse also-booked the now famous Blue Man Group in 1995, and their show has been a mainstay at the Playhouse ever since.
