Emerson Majestic Theatre

From Citysearch

Blink and you might miss it. Not because it isn't, well, majestic. But because it is so subtle.

In Short
With its beaux-arts design and neoclassical good looks, this 850-seat theatre provides one of the city's most attractive--and intimate--venues in which to enjoy top-notch opera and ballet. The Emerson is the venue of choice for dozens of eminent local and regional companies and performance series. Its high-profile location, just off the Boston Common, means there are a bevy of solid spots for a pre- or post-show meal or drink.
