The image, captured through a colour litho technique by Daniel Havell, takes us back in time to London's bustling theatre scene of the early 19th century. Formerly known as "The English Opera" or "The English Opera House" this iconic building on Westminster Street is now recognized as The Lyceum Theatre. Steeped in history and charm, it continues to enchant audiences with its grandeur and rich cultural heritage. As we delve into this snapshot from the past, we are transported into a world of entertainment and night life. A programme seller stands at attention in the corridor leading to the theatre's interior, ready to assist eager theatre-goers seeking an evening filled with excitement and drama.
