Construction
Alert!
Yes, there's Construction downtown this summer! You may want to allow yourself a few extra minutes of travel time for your downtown visit. Here is some information that may help you streamline your travel plans when attending the Theater for classes and our spring and summer performances.
**Updated: As of
11.16.2007**
Kalamazoo Street is now open and this allows those traveling from the theater to avoid the Grand exit from 496 as they can turn at Davenport University and enter the parking lot on Lenawee.
**Updated: As of 8.26.2007**
PLEASE NOTE: Currently, the only open driving route to BoarsHead Theater is to go down Hillsdale. Hillsdale is one block South of Lenawee. When driving down Hillsdale (towards the East), cross over Grand Avenue. At the next street, Cherry, turn left and enter the Theater parking lot at the back of the building. We apologize for the inconvenience, but the downtown will have a great new look when the construction is completed in October. BoarsHead is proud to be a downtown business member - we're looking forward to the face-lift!
As recommended by
downtown Lansing's Principal
Shopping District, to get to The
Center for the Arts, and
BoarsHead Theater:
If you take the
Highway (496) - continue to take
the Grand Avenue exit. During
the months of May - September,
off the ramp S. Grand Avenue
will be down to one lane. You
can still turn into the Theater
lot from Lenawee. If traffic is
heavy, you can also make your
first right off S. Grand onto
Hillsdale, then left onto Cherry
and come into the rear of the
Theater parking lot.
**Updated

Recommended route by city streets from the East or West: Take Grand River or Saginaw (Oakland) to S. Capitol (which runs one way.) When you turn onto S. Capitol, continue towards downtown past the Capitol building on S. Capitol until you get to Hillsdale. Turn left onto Hillsdale, cross S. Grand Avenue then turn left on Cherry and come into the rear of the Theater parking lot. Please note: With this route, you can no longer get to the Theater lot by going down Lenawee. Lenawee, from S. Washington to Grand Ave. is now CATA bus access only and there is a possibility you will be ticketed if you attempt to travel down Lenawee between these streets.
If you take Michigan Avenue (which is under some construction)
- please take Michigan Avenue to S. Capitol (which runs one way) and follow the
"city streets" directions above.
For patrons who use the Lansing bus system, please see the
CATA information
(Requires Adobe Acrobat
Reader, will open in a
new window).
We'll see you at
the Theater!
