Emerson Paramount Center

Visited the this center to see Into the Woods, and it was a wonderful experience. The theater itself is beautifully restored, with a blend of historic charm and modern comfort. The acoustics were excellent, making every note and lyric clear and rich. The production was engaging from start to finish a fantastic performances, creative staging, and an intimate atmosphere that pulled the audience right into the story. A perfect venue for such a whimsical and heartfelt show.

Saw The Seasons at this theater and it was WONDERFUL. The show made me laugh, cry (x2), and completely forget everything that was on my mind. It was beautifully performed - a treat for your eyes and mind. The theater elevated the experience.

Saw 82major here yesterday and the view from each seat in the orchestra was so good because of the incline of the seats as you get farther back from the stage. I was close to the top of the orchestra and did not struggle at all to see the stage. Such good design!

This theater is beautifully decorated and well appointed. It seems like it has been fixed up recently: the seating is clean and comfortable and the bathrooms a large and modern. Parking is not attached to the theater, but there is plenty of parking around, including under the Boston Common. It is a very quick walk from there to the theater. The hall is cozy. It's hard to imagine that any seat would be considered "bad." The orchestra section has a steep rake, so you fan easy see over those in front of you. The staff is friendly and flexible.

All the bathrooms I could find were mixed gender. As a woman, I felt very uncomfortable and unsafe using them, knowing that at any moment, a man could come in. The theater itself is not bad, but I won't be back.

Boston Film Festival screening 2025!

Today was the first time I visited the Paramount center since its renovation/ reopening (a few years ago?). The staff was very friendly, welcome, funny and engaging. The place is very beautiful and "artsy". I went to watch a movie as part of a film festival, so I only saw the 4th floor with its movie theatre, but it was all modern, nice and clean. After the movie, a documentary called "Love Boat: Taiwan", the filmmaker was available for a Q&A. I loved the experience.

Meet up very old friend at penang restaurant closeby the paramount. We strolled along the paramount after had our best asian dinner.
