Odeon Cinema

This beautiful Grade-II* listed theatre dates from 1897, and was designed by famous Victorian theatre architect W.G.R. Sprague. The Lyceum offers Sheffield's best selection of productions alongside the Crucible, specialising in touring West End and Opera North productions, as well as locally-produced plays.

An eclectic programme, with everything from musicals and panto, to contemporary plays and Shakespeare. As well as being Sheffield's largest and best-known theatre, the Crucible is also home to the widely televised annual World Snooker Championships.

Intimate auditorium for smaller-scale and experimental productions.

Sheffield's municipal art collection, with a good chronological selection from the 16th century to the contemporary era. The British, Flemish and French impressionist sections are particularly impressive. Includes works by Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin, Damien Hirst, L.S. Lowry, Grayson Perry, both Pissarros, Stanley Spencer, JMW Turner and Jan van Goyen. Often has notable travelling exhibitions. The gallery is not especially big, allowing you to see and appreciate everything within two hours. Keep your coat, as some galleries are kept uncomfortably chilly to the extent that blankets are left out for customers to borrow.

Shows productions by local amateur dramatics groups. Not accessible to wheelchair users.

A grand 1930s library in Art Deco style with an impressive volume of books.
