The Old Joint Stock Theatre is a studio theatre and pub located at 4 Temple Row West in the centre of Birmingham, England. The listed building was designed as a library but owes its present name to its use by Birmingham Joint Stock Bank. The present day theatre and pub is housed in a grade II listed building built as a library by architect J. A. Chatwin in 1862. The building was acquired by the Birmingham Joint Stock Bank. The Birmingham Joint Stock Bank, established in 1861, had four branches within the city; the oldest one, here in Temple Row, was opened for business in 1862. The Joint Stock Company amalgamated with Lloyds Bank in 1889. The building was then used by Lloyds Bank. It was converted into a pub in 1997. The theatre opened in 2006 with the £350,000 cost being provided by the owners Fuller, Smith & Turner. The design of the theatre was important and an ex theatre manager was used as a consultant during the construction. This consultant was the first manager of the pub and theatre. More information...
