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.

Famous quotes containing the words upper, brown and/or street:
“Give me the islands of the upper air,
all mountains
and the towering mountain trees.”

“I had rather munch a crust of brown bread and an onion in a corner, without any more ado or ceremony, than feed upon turkey at another man’s table, where one is fain to sit mincing and chewing his meat an hour together, drink little, be always wiping his fingers and his chops, and never dare to cough nor sneeze, though he has never so much a mind to it, nor do a many things which a body may do freely by one’s self.”
—Miguel De Cervantes (1547–1616)
“He has given me six hundred street signs.
The time I was dancing he built a museum.
He built ten blocks when I moved on the bed.
He constructed an overpass when I left.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
