North Shore Music Theatre is one of the last remaining theatre-in-the-round musical venues in the United States, founded in 1955 in Beverly, Massachusetts. Its unique 1,500-seat arena configuration creates an intimate experience for audiences enjoying a summer season of musicals, concerts, and holiday productions that has made it a beloved New England institution.
