About

Historic Comedy Hub

The Wilbur Theatre is a historic performing arts venue in Boston's Theater District, known for its intimate atmosphere and colonial revival architecture. Built in 1914, it was the first theater in Boston to be modeled after American colonial design.

While it originally hosted theatrical productions, the Wilbur has become one of the city's top destinations for stand-up comedy and live music. Its cozy setting allows for a unique connection between performers and the audience, making it a favorite for both local and touring acts.
