Birmingham Hippodrome
With audiences averaging around 500,000
each year the Birmingham Hippodrome
can lay claim to the highest regular
annual attendance of any single theatre
in the UK.
The Theatre Trust is a Registered
Charity (No. 510842), and they have
a Development Trust (No. 511567).
Since their award-winning £35m redevelopment
in 2001, the city centre venue has
attracted ever-increasing numbers
of people to performances and events
and is drawing audiences from an increasingly
broad geographical and socio-demographic
spread.
New people are enjoying some of the
finest productions in the world alongside
long-standing supporters, with up
to half the audience experiencing
a performance at the Hippodrome for
the very first time.
"Stunning, full-sized West End quality
in Birmingham." Ed Doolan, BBC Radio
WM "It's been a tough few years putting
the Hippodrome back on the map” comments
Stuart Griffiths who stepped into
the limelight as Chief Executive barely
ten months after the 109 – year old
theatre re-opened. “Getting the most
from our vastly expanded facilities
has been an uphill struggle, especially
when the costs of operating have increased
by 50%, but the challenges have galvanised
the whole team and with a strong and
supportive Board of Trustees, together
with the key support of the city council
and the Arts Council, we have strengthened
our business considerably and can
look forward now from a stable position
to an exciting future with some ambitious
plans.”
