Editorial Review for South Shore Music Circus – by Citysearch Staff
In Short
Situated 21 miles south of Boston in Cohasset, the South Shore Music Circus is the place for oldies and contemporary shows. You'll find wonderful old acts like Tom Jones and Peter, Paul and Mary returning here summer after summer, as well as contemporary artists like Chris Isaac, Buddy Guy, Bruce Hornsby and Vince Gill. The stage is in the round so none of the 2,200 seats is more than 50 feet from the performer. Best of all, the stage slowly spins around during performances. You'll never get stuck looking at Bill Cosby's back for 90 minutes. Every Thursday morning during the summer, plays and magic shows are put on for children.

We saw Lewis Black last night and I laughed so hard, my stomach went into spasms. Unfortunately, the lines of sight were so bad we could barely see, unless we twisted and strained in our seats. The stage is low and the seats are poorly raked. If anyone over 4' sits in front of you, your're screwed. Fun to listen, though.
Pros: great show
Cons: couldn't see a thing, someone brought their baby who constantly disrupted the show

This was such a surprise! I bought tickets to a concert that I was excited to see, but upon arriving at the South Shore Music Circus I was pleasantly surrpised. There is a stage in the middle, which rotates, and there is limited seating. Limited seating means a better show. If you find a band you mildly like, go! It is worth the 1 hour drive. you can go early and tailgate! enjoy.
Pros: Great Setting, Intimate, Fun
Cons: 1.5 hr liquor license, tough to find
