Lyric Stage Company of Boston
About
The Lyric Stage Company of Boston produces and presents bold plays, musicals and comedies in an intimate 244-seat theater in Back Bay, and it bills itself as Boston’s oldest professional theatre company. Its stated mission is to bring artists and audiences together through stories that entertain, inspire and delight, and to make live theater and theater education part of life for residents across Greater Boston.
Since its founding in 1974, the company has staged more than 300 productions.
