  1. Boston Ballet

    Boston’s skillful ballet troupe performs both modern and classic works at the Opera House, although they still put on occasional performances at the Wang Theatre, which is part of the Citi Performing Arts Center. During the Christmas season, they put on a wildly popular performance of the Nutcracker. Student and child ‘rush’ tickets are available for $20 two hours before the performance; seniors get the same deal, but only for Saturday matinees.

    Lily Pad

    We are loathe to classify this place as a jazz club because, frankly, this place defies classification. It’s a tiny space that fills up with music and performance art, whether it’s tango dancing, narrated jazz storytelling or a musical conversation between jazz piano and tap dance. You might also hear indie, avant-garde, folk and even chamber music. The space is stripped down – basically folding chairs in a room – which adds to the underground effect.
