How to see shows for free in Boston

Thursday, September 30th, 2004

We get to see a half-dozen shows per year for free at the Huntington Theater by volunteering to usher. We show up early, stuff programs, help people find their seats. When the lights go down, we find seats ourselves and enjoy the show.

It’s a great deal for everyone. The nonprofit Huntington Theater doesn’t have to hire ushers, and members of the community can see shows they otherwise wouldn’t be able to see.

We volunteer through Boston Cares, though you can also volunteer directly with the Huntington Theater.
