History

The Royal Lyceum Theatre is a beautiful Victorian building with a long history. Built in 1883, its early days saw performances by the likes of Henry Irving and Ellen Terry, whilst being run by legendary theatre managers Howard and Wyndham.

Throughout the twentieth century and into the twenty-first, the building has remained a theatre space and was taken over in 1965 by the Royal Lyceum Theatre Company.
