Helping keep that moniker as accurate today as ever are a vibrant theater district presenting pre-Broadway productions and national tours, award-winning regional theaters, and a host of other theater companies focused on everything from Shakespeare to contemporary plays and musicals. Boston audiences have much to look forward to this summer.

Arlekin Players Theatre has extended the run of THE DYBBUK through June 30.

Commonwealth Shakespeare Company reveals the cast for the free Shakespeare on the Common production of THE WINTER'S TALE, running from July 16 to August 4.

This 95-minute production is a whimsical blend of music and storytelling. There’s nothing more comforting than a home-cooked meal. In this case, it’s a rubaboo- a hearty stew simmering over a glowing campfire. The founder of the feast is Andrea Menard, a Métis singer-songwriter hailing from Flin Flon, Manitoba (Treaty 1 Territory). Her colourful cabaret, Rubaboo (the Michif word for “leftover stew”), is a whimsical, 95-minute musical feast steeped in storytelling, dance, and culture.
