Show of the Month Travel Club About Us

About The Travel Club

Show of the Month Club was the first theater club of its kind in New England to bring its members closer to the world’s great performances. Beginning with its very first London Theater tour back in the late 1950’s, Show of the Month Club has been offering its members first-class travel at unbeatable prices for over 50 years.

In 1998, Show of the Month expanded to include an exciting new membership benefit-an exclusive members-only travel club. While the name suggests travel with a theatrical theme, the reality is that the club offers all kinds of travel to the world’s most desired destinations, including many that feature world-class performances and cultural events-always at tremendous savings.

Show of the Month Travel Club is a subsidiary of Jerome Press, which owns and operates Show of the Month Club. The company also publishes Playbill and Theatrebill—Boston’s leading theater program magazines, and Panorama, the official Guide to Boston.

Here’s what Travel Club members are saying

“I went to Tuscany and as always it was fabulous. Thanks to the professional, mature and responsible behavior or the escort and the local guide. This was my fifth trip to Europe with Show of the Month Club. It’s become an every six-month thing. Again, thank you for providing these exciting, economic yet incredibly satisfying trips. Please keep up the good work!”

To all of you at SOMC, I want to take a minute to tell you my thoughts about my most recent trip with you. I went to Tuscany the first week in March. As always it was fabulous. Italy is my favorite destination in Europe to begin with and Tuscany was spectacular. This was my fifth trip with SOMC to Europe. I have traveled with either my husband, children, and/or friends on each of these trips and hope to plan the next one for this fall. ( It’s become an every six month thing ) Again thank you for providing these exciting economic yet incredibly satisfying trips. So many of these places I would like to return to but then there are so many new places I want to see. Please keep up the good work!

“I have been to 45 of our 50 states and decided it was time to begin travelling overseas when I turned 50. The Show of the Month Club is how I will be doing this. I have already gone to Paris and have just returned from Rome with my sister, Linda. Both cities are stories unto themselves. I loved both places.”

— Bonnie Griffith, Louisville, KY

Excellent Tour! Tour Manager and Local guides were outstanding...Liked the small group size, relaxed pace. I haven’t stopped telling people about Italy and our SOMC tour. I will definitely travel with SOMC again.

The Hotel was very clean and comfortable and had a very helpful staff. We did our own sightseeing, tours, metro traveling, but the location of the hotel couldn’t be better! Thanks for the arrangements!

We just took the London trip over the Thanksgiving Day weekend and I thought you would like to know the hotel and all the arrangements were great. Peggy was so very nice and made sure we were all set and when we got to London, she also made sure everyone had everything they needed. The hotel was very nice and so handy to everything........This was our first time to take a Show of the Month Club trip and we would do it again.

— M.C., East Weymouth, MA

“Just returned from the Nantucket Getaway. What a wonderful time my friends and I had. Our escort was awesome. The Nantucket Inn was more than we expected. Now my friends are anxious to join the Club. Thanks.”

— Marguerite Bartolo, Swampscott

“My husband and I have traveled to Italy, on 3 different occasions, through Show of the Month Club. We cannot say enough about this wonderful club. We could not afford to travel to Europe if it wasn’t for Show of the Month. The accommodations that are provided are excellent. Keep up the good work.”

— Paula Pullano, Providence, RI

“I just returned from your trip to Paris. It was fantastic! Because this was my first trip with Show of the Month Travel Club, I must admit that I was a bit skeptical about the reasonable rates. But the trip more than lived up to its billing. This trip offered the best aspects of a tour by getting spectacular rates, taking care of all the things that make travel difficult, such as tickets, accommodations, baggage, etc., while providing the freedom to do what you want. It was also very nice to have the option to take guided tours. I took the one to Versailles and it was excellent.... Kudos to Show of the Month Club! I would definitely sign up for another trip. In fact, I’m on your Web site now to see what’s coming up next.”

“Your web site is excellent--found exactly what I was looking for -- to take out of town guests into the city!”
