Lyceum Theatre (Park Avenue South)
thumb
The Lyceum Theatre was a theatre in New York City located on Fourth Avenue (now Park Avenue S) between 23rd and 24th Streets in Manhattan. It was built in 1885 and operated until 1902 when it was torn down to make way for the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company Tower. It was replaced by a new Lyceum Theatre on 45th Street. For most of its existence, the theatre was home to Daniel Frohman’s Lyceum Theatre Stock Company, which presented many important plays and actors of the day.
==Building==
The three-story building’s auditorium was deep by wide, with a seating capacity of 727: boxes 88, parquet 344, dress circle 172, balcony 123. Thomas Edison is reported to have personally worked on making it the first theatre lit entirely by electricity (not the first to use electric lights), and Louis Comfort Tiffany designed aspects of the interior. Not all new technologies lasted: for the first season the orchestra rode an "automatic elevator car" into the fly gallery to play in a gallery over the proscenium during performances, but the car was removed in the theatre’s second year. Ticket prices initially ranged from $1 to $2.50.〔Brown, ''A History of the New York Stage'', p. 419-420.〕〔''Lyceum Theatre'', Internet Broadway Database (ibdb.com).〕
