Based in the Jamaica Plain neighborhood of Boston, the club currently owns and resides in historic Eliot Hall, which its members purchased in 1889 to provide a home for performances and save the building from demolition.[2]

The Footlight's fundraising projects featured as a part of Boston's social life; there was a dining room in Eliot Hall where benefit dinners were held after theater productions.[3]
