Upper Brown Street (formerly the Phoenix Arts Centre) is a theatre in the city of Leicester, England. The centre hosted live shows and films of the arthouse and world cinema genres. In 2010, after a new Phoenix Square opened on the other side of the city centre, it was reborn as an important music training and performance venue under a new name.

““All men live in suffering
I know as few can know,
Whether they take the upper road
Or stay content on the low....””

Keep all you have of queenliness,
Forgetting that you once were slave,
And let your full lips laugh at Fate!”
—Gwendolyn B. Bennett (1902–1981)
“I marched in with the men afoot; a gallant show they made as they marched up High Street to the depot. Lucy and Mother Webb remained several hours until we left. I saw them watching me as I stood on the platform at the rear of the last car as long as they could see me. Their eyes swam. I kept my emotion under control enough not to melt into tears.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
