2018-19 Celebrity Series Debuting Artists

One of the things we love most about every Celebrity Series season is welcoming new artists to our stages! The 2018-19 season brings a variety of artists who are new to the Series, such as mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato, and those making Boston debuts, including Israel's Batsheva Dance Company. We're also excited to launch a new series of dance performances this season - with live music! - in the intimate Plimpton Shattuck Black Box Theatre at New England Conservatory.

Tickets to 2018-19 events are now available as part of a subscription package (any 3 or more events), which gives you a variety of benefits such as flexible ticket exchanges. Explore a few of the artists making their Celebrity Series debuts this season, and subscribe today!
