In 1930 in Birmingham, Oscar Deutsch, a young businessman opened the first venue in England that would multiply and entertain the nation for decades to come.

A name that in Ancient Greece meant, a building available for music performances, poetry recitals and rehearsals of plays for the big festivals in the open theatres.
