History of the Lyceum Theatre and Its Turbulent Past
The Lyceum near the Royal Academy site has transformed through centuries from a 1768 drum to a stage for Dibdin, Astley, and Arnold. It hosted debates, amusements, and lectures, becoming a theater of Mirth before burning down in 1830. The crown and Exeter interests delayed reerection, but a new edifice rose swiftly afterward, as noted by Spectator.
