LYRIC THEATRE MARKS 75 YEARS As the Lyric Theatre Belfast marks its 75th anniversary, it has revealed that its L-Acoustics L-ISA immersive audio system will become a permanent fixture within the theatre’s Main Stage auditorium. First introduced in late 2025 during the world premiere of Denouement by John Morton, directed by Jimmy Fay, it was the first deployment of L-ISA in a live theatrical production on the island of Ireland. The Lyric Theatre, Northern Ireland’s only full-time, self-producing theatre, stages at least six full-scale productions each year. “As Denouement ended, the conversation turned to what came next, Jimmy Fay (executive producer at the Lyric Theatre and director of Denouement ) saw first-hand what spatial audio could do. It enhanced the production’s narrative so profoundly that removing the system was not an option,” said Lyric Theatre deputy technical manager, Ian Vennard.
