More information on Wang Center for the Performing Arts

The centerpiece of the Theater District, the stage here boasts an impressive history. In recent years, performances of Riverdance and Miss Saigon have attracted record crowds and further cemented its reputation for first-class theater. It is also the home of the Boston Ballet and New England's largest movie screen. Established in 1925 as an ornate movie house named the Metropolitan Theater, the venue was designed by noted architect Clarence H. Blackall, founder of the Boston Architects' Collaborative. The Citi Performing Arts Center is composed to two neighboring theaters: the Wang and the Shubert.
