Old Joint Stock Theatre, Theatre and pub in Temple Row West, Birmingham, United Kingdom
The Old Joint Stock Theatre is a theatre and pub housed in a Grade II listed building featuring Victorian architecture with ornate ceiling details and traditional decor. The performance space seats around 95 guests and shares the venue with a working pub that serves food and drink.
The building began as a banking hall in 1864 before later transitioning into an entertainment venue. Its original architectural elements have been preserved throughout this transformation.
The theatre presents a range of musical performances, comedy shows, and dramatic plays to its audience. The productions reflect the diverse interests of the local community.
The venue sits in a walkable area near the city centre with convenient access for visitors. Arriving early is recommended to secure a good seat, as the intimate space fills quickly on show nights.
The space operates as both a traditional British pub and a working theatre at the same time, a rare dual-purpose combination. Visitors can enjoy a meal and drinks in the pub area before or after catching a show in the adjacent performance space.
