Palace Theatre

The Palace Theatre is a performing arts venue with 420 seats in central Redditch, featuring ornate architectural elements and a traditional proscenium stage. The interior retains many original design features from when it was built.

The building was designed in 1913 by architect Bertie Crewe, known for creating several notable theatre buildings across the United Kingdom. It has been protected as a Grade II listed building for decades.

The theatre serves as a hub for the local performing arts community, hosting everything from amateur dramatic groups to professional touring companies. This mix of programming reflects what audiences in the area have come to expect from their main stage.

The venue is centrally located and easy to reach on foot or by public transport, with parking available nearby. Booking in advance is recommended, especially if you want to see a specific show.

The theatre has remarkably preserved its original interior fittings, making it a rare example of an authentically maintained British theatre from that era. Visitors can still experience the character of an early 20th century performance space.
