Safety and Returning to Indoor Theater

In recognition of the currently low COVID transmission rates in Middlesex County and the Greater Boston area and feedback from our staff and guests, face masks will no longer be required at Central Square Theater. Guests who wish to wear masks are still encouraged to do so.

Thank you in advance for your help in keeping everyone safe when attending Central Square Theater. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

What kind of ventilation system does the CST have?

With our partners at MIT, we have recently performed a complete evaluation of our HVAC systems, including testing and balancing. All of our filters were changed to MERV 13 or higher. Our airflow systems can vary the amount of fresh air that is brought in, allowing for high levels of outside air during shows.
