Solihull Arts Complex

Councillor Qais, Cabinet Member for Communities at Solihull Council, said:

"The remediation works to the roof of The Core Theatre auditorium are progressing with the aim of an end of April 2025 opening. However, this will be subject to the works continuing to be on schedule.

“In my last update I mentioned we were looking at additional improvement works and equipment upgrades which will include improvements to the current stage related equipment along with upgrading of house lighting. Other additional works to refresh the look of the theatre are still being considered and costed and will be prioritised dependant on the overall project budget.

"Once open, audiences can expect a diverse and exciting calendar of shows and performances, including top tribute acts, musicals, film, comedy and productions from local theatre societies. There are also plans to hold a celebratory variety performance in the spring, hosted by the Mayor of Solihull for her charity fundraising event.

"It will be wonderful to see the main theatre auditorium open again after this extended closure. The Core is the cultural heart of Solihull and the theatre is its heartbeat.

"Everyone involved with The Core is excited and committed to re-establishing The Core Theatre as a thriving and successful venue, and to welcoming back its loyal and supportive audiences.”
