Lyric Theatre Seating Plan

The Lyric Theatre Seating Plan

The Lyric Theatre seating plan includes four levels: Stalls, Dress Circle, Upper Circle and Balcony, with a total capacity of around 915 seats. The Stalls offer excellent views of the stage and are ideal for immersive musicals and dramas. The Dress Circle provides a fantastic elevated perspective and is the most accessible area for those with mobility needs. Upper Circle and Balcony seats offer more affordable options with a steeper rake and bird’s-eye views — perfect for budget-friendly theatre trips. Each section has its charm, and the Lyric Theatre seat view remains consistently good due to the venue’s intimate scale.
