Yelp.com Review - by Rachel U.

5 of 5 stars. I really enjoy seeing plays here. It's a really cozy venue, but not in the "good lord it's a closet" kind of cozy. The interior is beautifully restored, the seats are a little tight, but you get a…

5 of 5 stars. I work here, so I'm a little bit biased, but even if I didn't I promise I'd still frequent it. Anyone who enjoys the performing arts should try to see a show here, because they are consistently well…

3 of 5 stars. EDIT *I came back to see Third, and luckily did not have to put up with any obnoxious audience members this time. Good play, a little tied up at the end, but good. The Huntington gets an extra…

Yelp.com Review - by Patrick B.

4 of 5 stars. Theatre makes me nervous. I'm always afraid an actor's going to totally mess up which would embarrass the hell out of me. Fortunately, if someone's bombing on stage, the Huntington is so attractive,…

4 of 5 stars. Conveniently located at the corner of Mass and Huntington Ave's, and a minute walkaway from the Symphony T station, this theatre is worth checking out for the supposedly good plays. I saw one last…

4 of 5 stars. Nice small old-fashioned theatre. Try to get seats in the stalls or mezzanine if you can - the balcony is quite high up.
