We are your Rep. A place to be transported – to laugh and cry, wish and wonder. To forget the day you’ve just had and make an evening to remember. Renowned venue hosting productions in an auditorium without balconies, pillars or boxes. We are the city’s world-class producing theatre. We create inclusive, exciting and exceptional theatre by, with and for Birmingham and the wider world. You can find us performing live on our three stages here in Birmingham (The House, The Door and The Studio), in the West End, or touring globally.
We might pop up on your doorstep in local streets, in schools and colleges, in shops, parks and city squares. We’re all about the live experience – whether you’re coming to see a show, taking part in a workshop, or dropping in for a coffee. We nurture artistic talent through new writing, directing, technical or casting programmes with young professionals and up-and-coming names. We also work with partners across the UK and internationally on new productions and community projects.
While results can take years, we know it’s worth the wait as we believe diversity to be a strength in our society, with art and culture belonging to all. We are a theatre for everyone. Looking out over Centenary Square’s fountains, work on our public foyers will soon be completed making us even more accessible. With our allies at the spectacular Library of Birmingham, our neighbours at Symphony Hall, our new friends at the University of Birmingham Exchange plus the vast social and commercial whirl of Paradise and Brindleyplace, there’s never been a better time to visit.
