The venue
Liverpool Playhouse
The Everyman's sister theatre on Williamson Square, a Victorian music hall that became home to the city's repertory company.
What was here before: The Playhouse opened in 1866 as the Star Music Hall, designed by Edward Davies, replacing the earlier Star Concert Hall. The Liverpool Repertory Theatre company bought it in 1911, the first repertory in Britain to own the freehold of its theatre, and renamed it the Playhouse in 1916.
