Huntington Theatre

About

The Huntington is Boston’s largest theatre company, staging productions that range from classics and recent Broadway hits to world premiere musicals and new plays. Shows run at two venues: the Huntington Theatre on Huntington Avenue and the Calderwood Pavilion at the Boston Center for the Arts in the South End, which the company built in 2004. Recent programming includes Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird and the nine-part Ufot Family Cycle, staged from neighborhood to neighborhood across Boston.

Under Norma Jean Calderwood Artistic Director Loretta Greco, the company continues its new play development work, and it has transferred more than a dozen productions to Broadway. It runs nationally recognized education and community programs and supports the local theatre scene by operating the Calderwood Pavilion. Groups of 10 or more receive discounted tickets and can add extras such as post-show chats with actors, backstage tours and on-site receptions.
