Stan’s Cafe is a theatre company (and charity). We make our work collaboratively, following exciting ideas wherever they take us, sometimes into theatres.
We love working in schools with students and teachers. Often we help out other people because we love seeing other people make great art.
We started in 1991 and we are more excited than ever before.
Please have fun zipping around our website.

All Our Money
It’s Bordesley’s first day at work as leader of Birmingham City Council. It would be a tough job for anyone, but he is a football mascot and his first job is to set the city’s £3bn pound city budget. We join Bordesley on his steep learning curve as he discovers, with the help of 6,000 gold dominoes where all our money comes from and where it all goes.
River Tours
Guided tours of rivers, performed live, indoors or out, illustrated by especially commissioned textile ribbon maps. The library is growing and our latest map and performance ‘The River Severn’ is touring this summer. We’d love you to join us on a journey down this, the longest river in the UK, a river flowing with stories of nature, history and legend. No boat needed.
