For most of its existence, the Lyric Theatre has been known to specialise in musicals, some famous productions being Hairspray, Thriller Live, Get Up, Stand Up! The Bob Marley Musical and others. Even today, this grand Renaissance-style venue, with some elements of Art Deco, is a brilliant place to catch a West End musical.

Amazing! You've delighted us! It was my daughter's 20th birthday present, and we came away with stars in our eyes and notes in our ears and hearts. The staging, the singers, the musicians, I can't find the words to express their brilliance!

It was an amazing musical, the booking process war really easy. However, at the time of booking, it didn't say that two of the three booked seats had a restricted view, which in this case wasn't too bad because the restriction was just a hand railing. Still we were made aware of the restriction when receiving the tickets, at which point it was too late to change the seats. But otherwise it was an amazing experience 8/10 would recommend
I loved the vibe, the general atmosphere and how you were able to do so many amazing things with a small stage. Amazing!
The performance was excellent! "Hermes " and "Orpheus" were outstanding! Our seats were terrible though. The angle of the theater didn't allows to actually see the stage while seated, so we stood for the full performance, and took a seat during intermission.
The seats were with limited sight, which was not shown on the website. The right side op the stage wasn't visible. That did effect the experience a lot.
