The Shubert Theatre is a theatre in Boston, Massachusetts, at 263-265 Tremont Street in the Boston Theater District.[2] It opened on January 24, 1910, with a production of Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew starring E. H. Sothern and Julia Marlowe. Architect Thomas M. James (Hill, James, & Whitaker) designed the building,[3] which seats approximately 1,600 people. Originally conceived as The Lyric Theatre by developer Charles H. Bond, it was taken over by The Shubert Organization in 1908 after Bond's death.[4]
The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. In February 1996, the Wang Center signed a 40-year lease agreement to operate the theatre with the Shubert Organization, which continues to own the building and property;[5] the theatre reopened after renovation in November 1996, as the first stop on the First National Tour of RENT.[5][6] The Boch family became the namesake of the center in 2016, making the full name of the theatre the Shubert Theatre at the Boch Center.[7]
