Combat Zone

The Combat Zone is a location in the Theater District of Boston in Fallout 4.

Background
Once an old-time theater and public arena, a gang of raiders occupied the building and took over the operation from Tommy Lonegan. Sometimes the raiders get their kicks watching fights between other raiders, and sometimes between unwilling captured wastelanders. Cait is one such wastelander.

Layout
The Combat Zone is a pre-War theater that has been repurposed into a fight club. It is located at the intersection of Lagrange and Tremont Streets. It is also the location of a potential companion named Cait, who the Sole Survivor meets after speaking with Tommy Lonegan.

In the entrance lobby, there is a side room labeled "Rule Breakers" on the left, featuring two bound raiders on display behind a security gate that can be opened via the nearby Advanced-locked terminal. The two raiders are non-hostile and can actually be greeted by the Sole Survivor, although they will mostly react with taunts or threats. They cannot be freed or untied. There is also an Expert-locked wall safe in this room, to the right of the security door.

Within the theater, a large cage dominates the stage area, and to the lower left is a bar and seating area. There are also a few wooden shacks and walkways above ground level, built around the now largely collapsed second-floor tiered seating rows and balconies. All inhabitants except Tommy and Cait instantly turn hostile, the latter two taking refuge inside the cage until the battle is over. At that time, Tommy may award the Sole Survivor with around 100 bottlecaps for clearing this area.

Once cleared, one can find several workstations. To the left upon entering the theater is a cooking station, with a weapons workbench and an armor workbench in a wooden shack nearby. A chemistry station is to the right of the entrance in a "Doctoring + Souvenirs" shack, and another cooking station is also on the right towards the stage area in a kitchen shack.
