Emerson Colonial Theatre – Boston, MA Tickets 

Discover the Iconic Emerson Colonial Theatre

Located in Boston’s historic Theater District, the Emerson Colonial Theatre stands as one of the city’s most treasured cultural landmarks. First opening its doors in 1900, the venue has been a beacon of live entertainment for over a century and remains one of the oldest continuously operating theatres in the United States. With its opulent Beaux-Arts architecture, intricate gilded interiors, and rich theatrical legacy, it continues to captivate audiences and performers alike. 

Throughout its storied history, the Emerson Colonial Theatre has served as a launchpad for countless Broadway-bound productions, including “Pippin,” “Grand Hotel,” and Stephen Sondheim’s “Follies.” More recently, the theatre has hosted smash hits such as “Moulin Rouge! The Musical” before transferring to New York’s Broadway stage. A meticulous restoration completed in 2018 brought the Colonial back to its original grandeur, blending historical charm with 21st-century enhancements like modern lighting and sound systems. 

Whether you’re seeing a Broadway tryout, a national tour, or a local production, the Emerson Colonial Theatre delivers a first-class experience in a setting where history meets artistry.
