Emerson Colonial Theatre
The EMERSON COLONIAL THEATRE is the longest continually operating theatre in Boston, MA. In its storied history since opening to the public in 1900, the theatre has debuted such seminal Broadway shows as Anything Goes, Porgy and Bess, Oklahoma!, Born Yesterday, Annie Get Your Gun, Follies, A Little Night Music, Grand Hotel, and La Cage aux Folles, among others. Reviving a great theatrical tradition, the newly restored Emerson Colonial Theatre re-opened its doors in summer 2018 with the pre-Broadway World Premiere of Moulin Rouge! The Musical. A theatre for the community, Emerson Colonial Theatre continues to contribute to the rich cultural landscape of Boston, with a new and varied program of Broadway shows, live music, comedy, speakers and events.
Emerson Colonial Theatre is an Ambassador Theatre Group venue.

During American Sign Language performances, skilled theatrical Interpreters use American Sign Language to interpret the performances on stage. The Interpreters work with a Deaf ASL Consultant to translate the production into American Sign Language. The audience can see both the Interpreters and the stage action simultaneously.
Tickets for American Sign Language interpreted performances will be available for purchase when individual tickets for a specific show go on sale.
