Birmingham Rep
A performance at Birmingham Rep makes Centenary Square an evening destination. This is a working theatre, so the production matters more than a quick look at the building.

The Rep brings Birmingham’s theatre tradition into the same square as the city’s major civic and cultural buildings. Its history includes The Door, opened in 1998 for new writing. For visitors interested in drama, the appeal is seeing a production here and connecting the company’s story with the stage.
What to look for
The theatre’s Centenary Square setting places it within Birmingham’s civic centre.
An exterior blue plaque remembers surgeon Sampson Gamgee, who once lived on the site.
