GETTING HERE & PARKING
Boston Playwrights’ Theatre is located at 949 Commonwealth Avenue in Boston, on the West Campus of Boston University. We are across the street from Agganis Arena, and our entrance is just to the left of Raisin’ Canes Chicken Fingers (mmmmmm, chicken fingers). Look for the ramp leading up from the street to our double doors, with the colorful mural by Sylvia Lopez Chavez and Mario Matojo.
How to find us
Like much of Boston, parking around BPT can be a challenge. There are metered spaces along Commonwealth Avenue both before and after BPT, and along some side streets off of Comm Ave. There are a few (emphasis on few) visitor spaces in Brookline across the street from BPT, e.g. on Pleasant Street. If you opt to hunt for free parking spots, give yourself plenty of time.
The closest parking garage to BPT is under Agganis Arena, which is just across the street and very convenient. You can access this garage entrance either from Buick Street or Harry Agganis Way. Rates and further information can be found on the Agganis Arena website. (Unfortunately, we do not have validated parking at this time).
