About Us

We’re all about the wows, the oooos, the gasps, the yeahs, and the “He’s behind you”- s.

The moments that make you laugh without warning, sing without shame, and leave you with a story you’ll be telling for life. That’s what The Epstein does best – and has done for over 100 years.

This is a theatre with history in its bones and a fresh sense of purpose in its programming. Today, we’re proud to be the variety stage of Liverpool – a space where comedy, music, theatre, dance, and family shows sit side by side, and everyone’s welcome through the doors.

No pretence. No judgement. Just the kind of live experience that brings people together (and keeps them coming back for more).
