Visited the Lyceum recently to see Second Person Narrative and The Tempest performed by the wonderful Lyceum Youth actors. Their enthusiasm and professional attitude shone through. Would highly recommend future performances. The Lyceum drama team are wonderful and front of house staff are very kind and helpful.

Really great wee theatre. Lovely feel. Well kept. Only thing lacking is the bars could be equipped with real coffee machines for us coffee drinkers lol

What a great theatre. Friendly workers. Box office noticed we had tickets for the next day and proactively offered to print those tickets for us as well!!!
