The project includes the construction of a nine-storey high Lyric Theatre including architectural fitting-out works, supply and installation of fitting, fixtures and theatre equipment and loose furniture.
The theatre comprises the following features:
a 1,450-seat main theatre, a 600-seat medium theatre and a 250-seat studio theatre, as well as a Resident Company Centre and a full range of professional rehearsals, communal and supporting facilities.
