Author: Awkward Dreams Title: Boston's Pilgrim Theater Summary: A completely true recollection of the goings on at a classic porn theater. Keywords: MMM+, public, true Boston's Pilgrim Theater By Awkward Dreams (a completely true recollection) By the time I was an adult living in Boston (the late 1980's), Boston's notorious "combat zone" was already on its way out. Development had pushed out all but a couple of strip bars and a few peep shows (most showing movies, and one with live women behind glass). Sometimes I could find hookers on Harrison Avenue or on the edge of Bay Village, but most of the time it was slim pickings. I visited often for all of these things, but one of my favorite places to hang out was the Pilgrim Theater. The Pilgrim was a large, old theater from the heyday of downtown, single-screen movie theaters. By the time I became a patron, it was very shabby, but you could always sense how it had once been grand. The single employee sold tickets from the booth that poked out a bit into the covered entryway. Being tucked away from the street a little, I felt safe from being spotted once I was buying my $5 entry, before passing through the wood and glass doors. The most notable feature of the interior of the theater was how incredibly dark it was. If I wanted to find an empty seat, I would have to wait three or four minutes for my eyes to adjust enough to avoid walking on top of people. In the main auditorium, there were no lights at all, save whatever came from the screen, which was not much. They showed straight movies, but the audience was all men, and they came mostly for each other's company. Once my eyes adjusted, sometimes I would take a stroll around to see what was going on. The place always seemed to be about ten to twenty percent full. Of the men sitting in the interior seats, about a quarter of them were clearly jerking off, though usually under cover of some piece of clothing or another. In the deeper corners, pairs of guys would sometimes be openly fucking on the seats, or one guy would be on his knees sucking off another guy standing against the wall. A lot of the time, I didn't take a seat at all, but hung out at the rear of the auditorium. Behind the last row of seats was a chest-high wall, with a wide corridor behind it. A lot of action happened at this wall. Being on the young side for the crowd, it was easy for me to get attention. I often stood with my front right against the wall so that guys wouldn't be able to reach for my dick, which I didn't want. I would then unsnap my pants and undo the zipper halfway, so my pants would be loose and falling down in the back. A guy would come stand near me, and when I didn't move away, he took this as a signal to move closer and start touching me. I would reach out and start stroking his dick through his pants. When he discovered my inaccessible dick and my very accessible backside, most times the guy would move in behind me and grope my butt and rub his dick against me. Sometimes he might reach inside my underwear and stick a finger up my ass. It felt so dirty to be humped and groped from behind by a strange older man in a sleazy porn theater. When I was ready for more intense action, I might go to the short section of wall on the far left side of the auditorium, put my back to the wall, and slide down until I was sitting on the floor. This also gave a clear message to any guys who found me that way. I never had to wait long before some guy would walk up to me and stick his dick in my mouth. I loved this because, with my back against the wall, the obvious action was for him to fuck my mouth until he came. I didn't have to do anything but swallow. I also liked to sit in what I called the "hot seat". This was the seat on the aisle in that last row before the wall. Whenever a guy stood at that corner of the wall, I would turn my head and open my mouth, looking up at him. Eventually, if he noticed me, he might walk around the corner and pop his cock into my mouth. It was a great spot for him to grab my head and fuck my mouth while feeling some sense of privacy from the wall. In those days, mouth fucking was not really a thing like it is today, so this was just quiet, gentle sliding of his dick in an out of my mouth until I felt the warm squirts of cum that I swallowed before he pulled out, zipped up, and walked away without a word. Sometimes I did sit in the interior seats, finding an older man to jerk off or suck. One time I saw a man violently face fucking another man right out in the open in the first row before the wide aisle in the middle of the theater. The guy getting his face fucked left, and the violent man sat there with his hard dick out, apparently ready for more. It was the first time I had seen such an act, and I was thrilled to give it a try. I sat next to him and he didn't say a word. I wasn't sure what to do, so I just took a chance and lowered my face to his crotch. He accepted my mouth around his dick and right away put both of his hands on top of my head. He pushed my head down hard and started thrusting up into my mouth very rapidly, nonstop. I couldn't believe how surprising and rough it was to have his sizeable dick jammed all the way into my throat like that. I only lasted half a minute before I felt compelled to escape, and I left him unsatisfied. However, I still think about that act, and it sparked a lifelong interest in getting face fucked. I wish I could meet that man again to show him all the things I've learned about how to take a dick down my throat. A couple of times, female or shemale hookers would enter the auditorium and strut around in their clacking high heels, looking for business. This was always a very exciting event for me, awakening my exhibitionistic tendencies. It's the only place I've ever been where openly stroking my dick in front of a woman as she walked by was totally reasonable and unremarkable. One time I got a woman with nice soft tits to jerk and suck me for $20 in the seats. I think she had a dick too, but she wouldn't let me between her legs to find out. Another time, a Chinese woman let me stand next to her at the wall, and didn't object when I started feeling up her backside. She continued to say nothing as I tried to reach into her skirt but was thwarted by some sort of wrapping. Finally I guided her hand to stroke me off, and I came in a puddle at her feet. Finally she found the only two words of English she appeared to know: "make money". Since I had just cum and didn't know how to negotiate with her in the circumstances, I ended up just walking away. I guess that's why hookers learn to get paid in advance. If the auditorium wasn't wild enough, I could always venture into the scariest part of this scary building--the bathroom. Down some once-fancy stairs, the cavernous men's room was the only place that had any lights. The decor was post-apocalyptic, and the main area had four or five stalls with no doors whatsoever, right across from four or five urinals. For some reason, the denizens of this bathroom were always cautious, as if this was a regular bathroom that civilians might enter or security guards might patrol. I guess some authority came in a few times, but for the most part, it was just us sex addicts. I always sat in a stall. I stroked myself slowly if I had to wait for someone else to come in. When anyone approached, I would keep my hand over my dick so they would not be tempted to come suck me. To make my intentions perfectly clear, I usually leaned my face forward and opened my mouth wide. The guy would usually stop at one of the urinals first and pretend to pee, but once he saw me, he usually walked right into my stall and didn't stop until his dick was buried in my mouth. I swallowed a lot of cum in that bathroom. Best of all was when I had an audience and a line of guys waiting to get off in my mouth. Every time I sucked a guy in those stalls, I would ask him if he wanted me to lick his asshole. They pretty much always said yes, or just turned around and bent over. This was the epitome of sexy degradation for me: licking a stranger's asshole in a bathroom so dirty and sketchy that most people I know would rather shit their pants than enter it. This was the allure of the Pilgrim Theater; it was so perverted and sexy, so dark and cozy, so cheap and busy that we could always count on it to provide the perfect escape from the cold, stuffy, real world.
