Belgrade Square, Coventry, CV1 1GS

One of Coventry's cultural cornerstones, this city-centre theatre has been putting on everything from blockbuster pantos to thought-provoking drama since 1958. It's the kind of place where kids sit wide-eyed through their first proper stage show, then spend the whole car journey home acting it out. Genuinely excellent for families, with a programme that doesn't talk down to children or bore the adults senseless.
