Cutler Majestic Theatre

This 1,200-seat Beaux Arts theater, the second-oldest in the Theatre District, is now a part of Emerson College's campus and is a true grand dame of the Gilded Age. It was constructed in 1903 with the intention of hosting opera performances, and its sumptuous interior design evoked the splendor of European opera houses.

However, Greek renaissance columns and conventional images of theater masks covering the inside pay homage to the building's theatrical past. Stained glass in the majestic arched windows produces a vibrant façade that is frequently overlooked by pedestrians on the ground level. The Cutler Majestic calendar is jam-packed with classical and contemporary opera, dance, and theatrical performances.

The Cutler Majestic Theatre is a Boston Historic Landmark and a member of the National League of Historic American Theatres. However, the Cutler Majestic was thrown around with different entertainment, from vaudeville to film, and changed to match, like much of the theater neighborhood. This architectural and artistic treasure, which is a member of the national League of Historic American Theatres and a Boston Historic Landmark, has been conserved and resurrected thanks to Emerson's involvement in the early 1980s and its following repairs.
