Hovey has been an art anchor in Waltham, providing live theater to the community for the past 85 years - allowing all who walk through our doors the unique opportunity to feel these performances viscerally within our blackbox theater. Hovey is among the most intimate performance spaces in New England. Neon lights guide the patrons downstairs and into our 50 seat blackbox; reminiscent of a 1920’s speakeasy.

ISAAC'S EYE 
by Lucas Hnath​

​

To understand light and optics better, young Isaac Newton inserted a long needle “between my eye and the bone, as near to the backside of my eye as I could.” Why take such a risk? Lucas Hnath reimagines the contentious, plague-ravaged world Newton inhabited in ISAAC'S EYE, exploring the dreams and longings that drove the rural farm boy to become one of the greatest thinkers in modern science.
