Beautiful decor and amazing events! Ive only had great interactions with the ushers and servers. My only note is that the balcony has no access for the disabled and parking around can be very pricey.

I took my beautiful Granddaughter to her first ballet here. The experience was awesome..Would have been 5 stars but the theater was so cold we had to wear our coats and hats.. But the performance and theater were exceptionally beautiful

I watched the Celtic Sojourn here. I wasn’t really interested but my brother brought me and I ended up really liking it. The theater’s seating and viewing experience is pretty good. Nothing to complain about here.

First time I have been to this theater. We saw Urinetown. Majestic is the perfect word for the theater. It is absolutely gorgeous. The actors were phenomenal. I will make the two-hour Drive Every Spring that I can to see what the students are performing. I cannot believe I didnt know this gem was here until this year

At nighttime, the beautiful stain glass windows gives the place a majestical look.

We went to watch Passagers from 7 Fingers and had a blast (great time). The Theater is quite classic and has that vibe to it. Dont expect it to be as humongous as Las Vegas theaters though. We sat in the Orchestra (Central) section. However, you wont be disappointed from picking any section as you will get a good view from pretty much everywhere. There are little balconies with 4 or 5 seats as well which would be best if you want to book it for a family or friends.

The attraction we watched was the Ballet Montreal Jazz performing unique indescribable beauty in movement, based on the poetry and music of the late Leonard Cohen. Words fail to provide any real description. See this theatre magic!!

Old and attractive theatre. Seating not super comfortable. Dont choose mezzanine or balcony if unwilling to climb steep stairs. Toilets a climb down to lowere level.

Quaint and charming theater! Has the classical theater ambience with popular mainstream events covering broad spectrum of genre for everyone. Its nice to be able to provide our daughter with cultural exposure to the theater from the Barber of Seville to Potted Potter without breaking the bank since ticket prices are very reasonable.

I was very pleased with my experience overall. The staff were lovely and very helpful and the show we saw (Potted Potter) was fantastic. The reason I only gave it 4 stars is because there were quite a few tripping hazards around the stairs to get up and down to the Box Seats where I and my mother were sitting without any signs or warnings, causing us bother to roll our ankles multiple times. The chairs in the box seats are also quite unstable and made me feel rather uncomfortable as a bigger girl. Just a few easy fixes and this experience would have been marvelous~

Amazing theater with great employees. The building is easy to find and staff made experience very enjoyable. An audience member was being hostile, the usher calmed them down with no problems and went on with the night. Also, practically every seat in the place is a quality seat because of the theaters size.

The Cutler-Majestic is a jewel of a venue. We attended the 16th Celtic Christmas Sojourn there last night. It was a terrific feel-good program, perfect for the season.

Just saw Tosca. Although seats were back balcony, we still had great view because the pitch is steep. Beautifully decorated in old majestic style, but clean and updated. Balcony has its own restrooms, not crowded! Lovely show, lovely surroundings.

Wouldnt call it a high quality theater. Went for ballet but not very traditional. Their last two rows were horrible... Dont understand why they would sell such cheap tickets to compromise the audiences experience

This old theater has a great history, attract lots of great performances and has marvelous facades. It has been updated with lights, sound system and such. The bathroom is an adventure to find. Parking is an adventure too - take the T, look for a deal or bite the bullet.Lots of great memories!

What a beautiful theater! Its not huge (well Im from New York) but big enough. The decor was well preserved and the sound projection was great. One caviat was that I wish the theater was sound proofed against the outside noise - even with the doors closed, the city life seeped in from the back. Hmph!

It is a smaller theater, but definitely feels majestic with its lush interior and amazing decorations on the ceiling and walls. i usually attend as part of the ArtsEmerson programs and perhaps my appreciation for the theater is enhanced by all the great productions that i have seen there.

Review №53

The theater is beautiful very well-preserved the show measure for measure however was horrible the acting was fine but we did not know that it was all done and either Russian or Austrian so to go to a play just to read subtitles on a scrolling Marquee is not my a way of spending my money

Great Theater in Boston. They have a fantastic variety of shows (something is running usually), mostly performed by artists brought in by the Arts Emerson Foundation. They may do other things aswell. Seating is great, offering views from wherever you are, no blocked angles or anything.

Gorgeous Gorgeous GorgeousWhat a beautiful theater! Intimate with great sight-lines. The seats in the mezzanine were a bit close to the row in front -- think Fenway -- and Im not a tall guy.Besides that, an incredible place to catch a show.

Review №79

Really nice theater. There was two snack bars but bathroom were so crowded and the lone was super long. I advice using bathroom before the show or during rather than any break time. There is a parking lot for theaters a block away and is so expensive. If you are lucky you can find parking in the street but it will take time.
