Enjoy Lyric in comfort

LEONGATHA Lyric Theatre is proud to announce it has new luxurious seats on order in preparation for its next big musical, Blood Brothers in September.
Mesley Hall has long needed up-graded seats and Lyric Theatre has stepped up and ordered top of the range seating to provide local theatre-goers with a more comfortable experience.
The seats, which are Australian made by Camatic, a company that has developed a national reputation for innovative design and manufacturing excellence.
As well as being the major theatre seat supplier in Australia, Camatic has also supplied stadium seating for the Atlanta Olympic Games and the Pasadena Rose Bowl.
Lyric Theatre committee members are excited about the new seating system and can’t wait to use them for the next musical.
Lyric Theatre president Glenda Smith has been waiting a long time to realise the upgrade.
“Along with Lyric members and committee members over the past 30-plus years, I have seen many efforts to provide a more comfortable venue for our audiences,” she said.
“Finally, due to the hard work of many casts and crews, Lyric committees and treasurers, particularly Ron Eagger and Peter McAlpine, part of the dream has come true.
“At least now our audiences will be able to enjoy the Lyric Theatre experience in comfort. A big vote of thanks for those involved in finally bringing this project to fruition.”
The seats are only part of a full scale up-grade to Lyric Theatre’s seating.
Long time Lyric Theatre members Neil Warren, Peter Western, plus other Lyric members, have been busy stabilising the existing tiered seating scaffolding and adding new safety rails to each section.
The seating tiers have also been given an uplift, with new theatre carpeting being added by Neil Warren, Peter Western and David Tattersall, with advice and assistance from carpet expert, Brian Collier for comfort and noise reduction.
Lyric Theatre’s Blood Brothers opens in September. Be sure to book a ticket and enjoy the added comfort of this state of the art seating system.

Goal reached: a happy moment for Lyric Theatre vice president Ross Garner as he hands over the cheque from Lyric Theatre to a Camatic representative, finalising the purchase of the new seats.
