Birmingham Repertory Theatre, Theatre in Centenary Square, Birmingham, England

The three-auditorium theatre complex on Broad Street features a main stage with 825 seats, a secondary venue with 300 seats, and a studio space seating 140 people.

Established in 1913 by Barry Jackson, the theatre began as Britain's first purpose-built repertory venue on Station Street before relocating to its current location in 1971.

The theatre maintains a strong focus on new dramatic works, commissioning and producing 130 original plays between 2008 and 2013 alongside traditional performances.

The repertory theatre presents regular productions throughout the year, with performances scheduled in all three spaces and tickets available through the box office.

During the 1920s, the theatre created national discussion by presenting Shakespeare's Cymbeline in modern dress, marking a shift in theatrical presentation conventions.
