The Lyceum Theatre is a grand, luxurious playhouse in the West End that has housed productions since 1904. However, the roaring production of The Lion King has dazzled theatregoers since 1999 and continues to do so today.
Prior to 1904, there was a theatre that stood on this site. But, the theatre was remodelled to incorporate space for a larger audience. Alongside being a theatre, the Lyceum was the home of the “Sublime Society of Beefsteaks”, a group who would congregate with one another to eat beef and drink wine.
The venue has maintained a vibrant, colourful history. Originally known as the English Opera House, operas including Cosi fan tute by Mozart and shows including A Tale of Two Cities were performed there, as well as famous faces taking to the stage with their own shows.
When the venue re-opened in 1996 it soon emerged as the top place to stage musicals, beginning with Jesus Christ Superstar soon to open again at the Barbican and Oklahoma! In 1999, The Lion King was first performed at the venue, and the Lyceum Theatre has not looked back.
