Every year, Salem, MA becomes a sought-after destination for specter-seeking tourists, transforming morning coffee runs into the scariest part of the Halloween season. Each year October brings enthusiastic visitors to the town of Salem, MA, and at times the crowds can be overwhelming. If you are looking for an evening away from the bustle that the Fall season brings, head over to Rockwell Theater for the MBTA Musical.
For those struggling to find peace amongst the Witches and Warlocks frolicking through the cobblestone streets during the month, T: An MBTA Musical offers a reprieve. Escape to Somerville for a musical comedy about the difficulties of navigating America’s oldest public transit system.

“T” is the journey of three struggling Bostonians whose lives have been derailed by the MBTA’s shortcomings. When they discover a secret map that will let them conquer the T once and for all, they set forth on a colorful journey that is part love story, part melodrama, part scavenger hunt – but mostly underground.
Since 2021, we have been delighting audiences with our musical “love letter” to Greater Boston.
With the Green Line extension connecting North Station to Magoun Square, it’s now actually possible to traverse the T from Salem to Somerville! Join us outside the chaos of capitalist Halloween, at the Rockwell Theater in Davis Square. Enjoy the arts, the air, and the lack of Sanderson Sisters cosplay
