The 1,100-seater theatre, which opened in 1897, has had its ups and downs over the years – it was nearly lost when, after a period serving as a bingo hall and a rock venue, it closed and fell into disrepair. Only a concerted campaign saved the Lyceum, which reopened in December 1990.
It had only closed since for refurbishments before the pandemic hit and entertainment venues had to close. To book tickets for Hairspray and to see what else is on, go to www.sheffieldtheatres.co.uk
