Artistic Excellence

We collaborate to create an atmosphere that empowers artists to do their finest work. Our rigorous standards reflect our commitment to excellence in every area of production. We take pride in our outstanding track record of artists who want to return, and we cultivate an audience that expects to be challenged. The work we do thrills us, too.

Communication

We aspire to work as a team within and between departments. We respect our co-workers’ time and resources by striving to meet deadlines.

Community

Our role in the local theatre ecosystem is vital to the city of Boston. We provide resources for and host many organizations at each of our theatres. The people we meet before work and after a performance, the students who see a matinee, and the businesses and theatre companies around us, are all part of our family.

Diversity

We are committed to an environment that fosters inclusion and honesty, and reflects our community. We respect varied backgrounds and work and life experiences. We pursue programs that attract under-represented talent, and we celebrate and hire artists and professionals from Boston, the nation, and the world.

Education

We are proud of our deep ties to the local community, and our programs in area schools reach over 30,000 students each year. We reach an economically and ethnically diverse audience, and we are committed to full accessibility.

Financial Responsibility

We honor our audience and Board by being responsible with our finances, and we create beautiful theatre with elegance and economy.

Radical Hospitality

We will go above and beyond to make everyone who works with us feel welcomed, supported, and challenged to do their best work.

Respect

All great work is nurtured in an atmosphere of civility and mutual respect. Harmonious and collaborative rehearsal rooms, production shops, and office spaces are our priority. We value physical safety and a supportive and fun work environment.

The Huntington aspires to create an inclusive and welcoming space for all communities that gather here. We are committed to learning as an institution and encourage all to join us in crafting and sustaining an equity-driven culture. We believe mutual respect is the foundation of a healthy community. Therefore, The Huntington will not tolerate racism, discrimination, or harassment of any kind.

Thank you for creating this community with us. We are glad you are here.
