Tremont Theatre (Boston)

A group of wealthy Boston residents financed the building's construction.

Architect Isaiah Rogers designed the original Theatre structure in 1827 in the Greek Revival style.

[1] In the early part of the 19th Century, Boston was still a small town, not yet the bustling metropolis it is today.

These included Junius Brutus Booth, Charlotte Cushman, George Washington Dixon, Fanny Elssler, Edwin Forrest, John Gilbert, Charles and Fanny Kemble, and Thomas D. Rice.

[5] On 28 December 1843, the Free Church Baptists bought the theatre and renamed it the Tremont Temple.
