來自建築事務所的描述：波士頓大學近期完工的Joan & Edgar Booth劇院和藝術學院分為了三個部分，全新的設施讓波士頓大學美術學院的劇院成為了更加統一的整體，這裡有著先進的教學設施，服務於戲劇製作和表演的各個方面。
Text description provided by the architects. The story of Boston University’s recently completed Joan & Edgar Booth Theatre and College of Fine Arts Production Center is threefold: The new facilities enable BU College of Fine Arts School of Theatre to become a more unified and comprehensive program, with state-of-the-art facilities as teaching tools for all aspects of theatre production and performance.
這也是幾十年來，美術學院表演和製作專業的學生首次在同一個場所裡學習。
It is the first time in decades that College of Fine Arts performance and production students have been housed in the same location.
這座建築大大提升了波士頓大學的地位，波士頓地區有許多充滿活力的表演場所，但是Booth劇院仍然在這裡佔有一席之地，給學生和波士頓的戲劇發展帶來了文化契機。
The building is a tour de force of design, continuing to elevate Boston University’s presence on Commonwealth Avenue. With a full season of productions, Booth Theatre will quickly take its place among the many dynamic performance venues of the Boston area, providing students and Boston’s theatre-going public with additional cultural opportunities.
莎士比亞曾經在《哈姆雷特》中說過：“將鏡子交託給自然。”這句話是波士頓大學劇院的長期試金石，也成為了劇院設計理念的核心靈感。
A well-known quote from Shakespeare’s Hamlet: “To hold as ‘twere the mirror up to nature” has been a longtime touchstone for the BU theatre program and became a central point of inspiration for the design idea of theatre as a mirror to society.
劇院的外部包裹著如舞臺般的混凝土表皮，其面向Commonwealth大道一側則有著40英尺（約12.2米）高的玻璃幕牆，並且朝向街道傾斜14度，似乎在邀請遊客進入室內，同時也呼應了街道關係。
Wrapped in a proscenium-like concrete scrim, the theatre’s shimmering 40-foot glass façade on Commonwealth Avenue tilts toward the street at a 14-degree angle, reaching
那句靈感的名言銘刻在入口大廳上方夾層邊緣的黑色金屬面板上，讓師生、參觀者意識到自己即將進入充滿想象的世界。
The inspirational quote is now engraved on black metal panels along the edge of the mezzanine above the entry lobby, greeting all students, faculty, and visitors and reminding them of the world of imagination they are entering.
