Lyric Theatre – Lowry

Five stars for any theatre that provides enough toilets for us women! Also for comfortable seating, reasonably priced wine and an interesting programme. We thoroughly enjoyed Rebecca, enough drama and melodrama to keep us hooked. A great way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

A wonderful modern theatre in Salford at the Lowry Centre. The Lyric Theatre is the biggest of the two theatres inside of the huge Lowry Centre. It hosts many amazing plays, musicals and many other entertainment options.
I have been to see two National Theatre productions here which include the amazing War Horse and recently the Curious incident of the dog in the nighttime. It also has a couple of restaurants and cafes and amazing views to go with it. I have sat in many places in the Lyric theatre and there really isn’t one bad seat plus the seats are really comfortable!
All the staff who work here are really friendly and they seem to love there job. So take a look at the Lowry website to see if theres a show coming your way soon. Even if you’re not sure that you might like the theatre, give it a go you may love it!
The Lowry also hosts many art exhibitions which currently has Behind the Mask, the biggest collection of BAFTA-​winning actor portraiture ever assembled, which has come to The Lowry for its first time out of London which is worth the trip out of town alone! You can easily get to the Lowry from the city centre of Manchester on one of the Metrolink trams which head towards Media City UK!
