ARTSEMERSON - PARAMOUNT CENTER

When it opened its doors in 1937, this theatre was one of the first in Boston to offer films. At that time, it could seat up to 1,700 people! It closed its doors in 1976 and, unfortunately, its beautiful Art Deco interior was largely destroyed. Today, it hosts international film, theatre, music and dance productions. It underwent major renovations between 2005 and 2010 and can accommodate up to 550 people.
