Artrix

Artrix is an arts venue in Bromsgrove, England, located on School Drive just outside the town centre. The building was constructed between 2004 and 2005 on a green field site near Heart of Worcestershire College Bromsgrove campus and the Bromsgrove 'Blue Light' centre. It hosts theatre and dance performances, cinema screenings, live music , comedy from well-known performers to circuit comedians. It also works with local groups and organisations as part of Bromsgrove Arts Alive which provides space for theatre performances, a Pantomime a classical music club, spoken word talks and productions by local dance schools. Artrix also has a very active learning and engagement department that coordinates many projects including a youth theatre group and projects in the community for all ages and social standing. The building also contains a rehearsal room/dance studio on the second floor which since 2013 has been regularly used as a studio theatre in addition to its main house for small scale theatre, music and spoken word. There is an art gallery on the three floors of the venue. It has a seating capacity of approximately 520, in both of its venues. The seating in both venues can be dismantled to create open spaces for events. Both the main house and the studio are soundproofed and are not linked structurally within the building, in order to eliminate sound conduction between the two. There is also a licensed cafe-bar.
