Honorable Councilors,
On behalf of the American Repertory Theater, I would like to request permission for a light pole
banner program to promote the ART's upcoming production of EVITA. We would like
the banners to be installed from June 12 - July 30, 2023.
We request permission to have the banners on eight Broadway poles and on eighteen Massachusetts
Avenue poles. The pole numbers are as follows:
Broadway:
79,80,81, 82, 83, 84, 86, 88
Massachusetts Avenue:
134, 140, 142, 148, 150, 154, 156, ?, 168, 170, 172, 174, 176, 178, 184, 180, 182, 188
In the event that the Broadway poles are unavailable, we would like to request that those eight
locations be moved to JFK St.,, poles M27, M28, M29, M30, M12, M13, and two poles without
visible numbers at the corner of Mt. Auburn St.
The proposed banner desgns are attached.
Thank you for your consideration,
Amy Macdonald
