The Boston Music Hall, Winter Street, 1852[1]Opening night program, November 20, 1852
The Boston Music Hall was a concert hall located on Winter Street in Boston, Massachusetts,[2][3] with an additional entrance on Hamilton Place.[4]
One of the oldest continuously operating theaters in the United States, it was built in 1852 and was the original home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. The hall closed in 1900 and was converted into a vaudeville theater named the Orpheum Theatre.[5] The Orpheum, which still stands today, was substantially rebuilt in 1915 by architect Thomas W. Lamb as a movie theater.
The hall has no connection with Boston's "Music Hall", a theater which is now known as the Wang Theatre.
