Park Square Theatre (Boston)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Park Square Theatre was a theatre in Park Square in Boston, Massachusetts, designed by architect Clarence Blackall. It opened January 19, 1914, as the Cort Theatre, named for impresario John Cort. It was his first theatrical venue in Boston.[1]
Not to be confused with Selwyn's Theatre.
In August 1915 the Cort Theatre was purchased by Archibald and Edgar Selwyn and renamed the Park Square Theatre.[2][3][4][5] In 1921 it was renamed the Selwyn Theatre, one of many Selwyn theatres in the United States.[2] In time the building was replaced by a parking garage.[6]
