Wilbur Theatre

246 Tremont St., Boston, MA, 02116
(617) 931-2000; 617-248-9700 - Venue Website

The Wilbur Theatre has been the scene of many landmark theatrical productions since it opened in 1914. In 2008, it became the home of the Comedy Connection in Boston (formerly located in Quincy Market), hosting both comedy and musical talent. This transition makes the Wilbur Theatre the first comedy theater in the country.

Comedy Connection

I bought tickets unknowing that the theatre had been taken over by the comedy connection. We dressed for the "theatre", and were very disappointed when we arrived at the "theatre". We found all of the theatre seats had been removed and we were squished into tiny table that hold 2 drinks, with 5 or 6 chairs per table - just like the sardine can they called the old comedy connection. There is only popcorn to eat and NO ALCOHOL -- a very disappointing evening. Jaime Kennedy was great, but I won't soon be going back to be stuffed into a seat that I can barely fit in. (and I'm only 5' tall and 129 lbs)
