The current Lyceum theatre is the fourth incarnation of the Lyceum on this site, the first being built as far back as 1772. The current building was designed by Bertie Crewe and was completed in December 1904. However, the front Portico is from the previous building designed by Samuel Beazley. The theatre was almost closed before World War two, but demolition was delayed. The theatre has fallen in and out of repair over the last forty years, being used mainly as a pop concert venue. It was fully restored in 1996, and has since hosted theatrical productions such as Jesus Christ Superstar and The Lion King.
