Our intimate Theatre seats 1,000 and hosts ballets, small plays, opera and concerts. It is also the home of the Birmingham Children's Theatre. Their professional staff is dedicated to producing quality educational, adult professional theatre for young audiences since 1947.

BCT has grown into the largest children's theatre in the country in terms of both audience size and number of performances. With a national reputation for excellence, BCT and its touring company, "Theatre in Motion," bring the excitement of live theatre to hundreds of thousands of school children across Alabama, the Southeast and the US.

Perfect for business meetings, the theatre is also tied into our fiber optic network, where effective remote site teleconferencing can take place. The Theatre is ideal for product launches or new product training for larger groups.
