Rental FAQ
Q: I want to rent the Lyric’s theater space; when would I expect best availability?
A: Lyric Stage Boston exclusively performs out of the theater at 140 Clarendon St. Productions use the space from early August through June depending on show runs. Between that time, for smaller events, the theater is generally available on Mondays and Tuesdays. During this time, you should expect scenic elements that may not be able to move or be masked for your event and lighting options may be limited due to the existing show being installed. Between June and August, availability and flexibility of the space is substantially greater. Inquire for specific details on what is in the space and if we are able to accommodate your needs.
Q: Are you able to help us with ticketing for our event in the theater?
A: We are! Whether general seating or assigned seating, we can work with you in getting tickets set up and printed for your event for a small additional charge. When considering your rental request include this information for Lyric Stage staff.
Q: What is parking and accessibility like?
A: This information can be found on our Getting Here page as well as other helpful information!
Q: Is there wi-fi available?
A: The Lyric Stage’s wi-fi is available for active renters.
Q: Can the room’s temperature be controlled?
A: In Veloudos hall there is a thermostat accessible to you. When renting the theater ask Lyric staff to assist you and they may be able to help accommodate temperature needs.
Q: Veloudos Hall is the perfect rehearsal studio for me, but I am a tap dancer and see that you don’t have a space that accommodates use of my shoes. Do you have any kind of tap board I could use?
A: At the moment we do not, but you are welcome to bring a material or rolling tap board to use if you’d like!
