The Birmingham Repertory Theatre, situated in Centenary Square, dates from 1913 and is home to one of the oldest, and most renowned, theatre companies in Britain.

Traditionally called simply “The Rep”, it has an excellent reputation and regularly receives critical acclaim. Plenty of famous actors and actresses, including Laurence Olivier and Albert Finney, have all performed here.

There are two stages in the Birmingham Repertory Theatre – the 900-seat Main House, which is where most of the mainstream shows are performed, and the smaller 140 seat Studio Theatre, which is usually home to more experimental and cutting edge performances.
