The Wang Theatre opened in October of 1925 to massive appeal and success as the Metropolitan Theatre. As one of the largest movie palaces in the world, it was often referred to as an “Architectural Marvel,” a “Wonder Theatre,” and “The Showplace of New England.” However, as time went on and interests changed, this historic venue continued to evolve when others could not. It survived through the era of the Great Depression, the Watch and Ward Society, the Combat Zone, disrepair, and now a pandemic. Despite these challenges, the Boch Center – home of the Wang and Shubert Theatres, remains innovative and provides entertainment and cultural educational experiences to all through dance, spoken word, musicals, theater, comedy, and family programs. Enjoy a behind the scenes tour of this jewel of Boston’s Theater District. The tour will cover the theater’s history and so much more! Note: The Wang Theatre is accessible, but some areas are most easily reached by using stairs. If you or anyone in your party cannot climb stairs or may need additional assistance, please contact the theater in advance to make accommodations.
Scott Towers joined the Boch Center in April of 2019 after spending over ten years in the Boston Area Tourism & Hospitality Industry. Most recently, he spent nine years with the Boston Red Sox ending his tenure as the Manager of Fenway Park Tours, the most successful tour program in all of Major League Baseball. His career has allowed him to experience many aspects of business including management, marketing, financial and data analysis, team building, event planning and he has an entrepreneurial spirit. He has a Bachelor’s Degree from Boston College and started a small venture in wedding and event videography out of college. He has flourished in many high pressure situations and takes great joy in being a creative problem solver. With the Boch Center he provides behind the scenes tours and works to preserve the rich history of the Wang Theatre. He is honored to be a part of such a unique enterprise and knows that tours of the theatre in addition to the Folk Americana Roots Hall of Fame will add an element to the Boston Tourism landscape that has previously not been available and will be of great interest to the millions of visitors that travel to Boston annually.
