The Citi Performing Arts Center (formerly Wang Center for the Performing Arts) is located in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. It consists of two theatres, Wang Theatre and Shubert Theatre, both of which are neighbors, on Tremont Street, in Boston's Theatre District. The Center adopted its new name late in 2006, after signing a 15 year agreement with Citigroup.
The center maintains partnerships with the Boston Lyric Opera and the Commonwealth Shakespeare Company.
