Banner Theatre

Britain’s foremost workers theatre & music company ✊

Banner Theatre is a socialist theatre company based in Birmingham. Formed in 1974, from a disparate collection of folk singers, drama teachers, office workers, broadcasters, technicians and car factory workers, Banner is one of the few companies from the radical community theatre movement of the 1960s-1970s still creating and performing work in partnership with Britain’s Trade Union movement, working class and disenfranchised communities – those A. Sivanandan calls ‘communities of resistance’.
