(Across the street from WBZ-TV 4)

Our outdoor summer home since 1971, The Publick Theatre at Herter Park is an outdoor amphitheatre on a man-made island in Christian Herter Park, part of the Massachusetts Department of Conservation & Recreation's Urban Parks Division.

The amphitheater offers 125 set-in stadium seats in the center section (like you'd see at Fenway park) and backed bench seats on the left and right sides, with seating for just under 250 patrons.

The site, located directly on the banks of the Charles River, offers plentiful free parking only steps from the theater, and afford thousands of visitors every season the opportunity to experience a repertory of llive performance under the stars- in a relaxed setting unlike any other in the world.

Pre-performance picnics are encouraged prior to shows ( for safety reasons, we ask patrons to remain in the amphitheater seated areas during performances.) Light beverages and snacks are available for sale prior to performance and during intermission. The site includes acres of free parking at the base of the theater for use during performance nights.

539 Tremont Street, Boston's South End

Home to Publick Theatre Boston's Main Stage Series, and where it will soon begin a 3-year residency in Fall 2008, the Boston Center for the Arts (BCA) is a nonprofit performing and visual arts complex located in Boston’s South End, the largest historic district in the United States. As a creative home for artists and an arts destination for audiences, the BCA builds a connection between the arts and the city’s diverse community.

Some of New England's most creative and acclaimed small and mid-sized theatre companies are in residence at the BCA, as are 50 working artists and arts organizations.

The BCA strives to provide a welcoming, intimate environment that provides opportunities for all visitors to have an enjoyable and meaningful experience with art, artists- and each other.
