The Lyric Theatre is a West End theatre in Shaftesbury Avenue in the City of Westminster. It was built for the producer Henry Leslie, who financed it from the profits of the light opera hit, Dorothy, which he transferred from its original venue to open the new theatre on 17 December 1888.

The theatre twice changed hands in the 2000s. It was bought by Lloyd Webber’s Really Useful Group in 2000, and in 2005 it was acquired as part of Nimax Theatres.
