  Lyceum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aristotle walked in the lyceum's stoas and grounds as he lectured, surrounded by a throng of students, so the philosophical school he founded was called the Peripatetics.
In imperial Russia, a Lyceum was one of the following high educational facilities: Demidov Lyceum of Law in Yaroslavl (1801), Alexander Lyceum in Tsarskoe Selo (1810), and Imperial Katkov Lyceum in Moscow (1867).
The word lyceum is in use for secondary education (Greek: Ενιαίο Λύκειο), specifically for the last three high school classes in Greece and Cyprus.

 Lyceum Theatre
The Crewe theatre occupied a wider plot than the earlier building and the portico and entrance staircase are, as a consequence, offset from the axis of the auditorium.
The history of the old Lyceum ends with 1902 when the interior was pulled down and reconstructed, the house being opened for a while as a variety theatre.
It is worth notice, too, that the Lyceum, occupying a perfectly isolated position with a street on each of its four sides, offers special facilities for egress in case of alarm, whilst the saloon and lobby accommodation is on an unusually handsome scale, only equalled by that at Drury Lane.

 A history of the Royal Lyceum Theatre under Henry Irving
He wanted to create a national theatre, a place that would occupy a position of cultural importance in the capital and firmly legitimise theatre as an art form.
H Booth, a contemporary writer, noted that 'it soon became almost a religion to attend the Lyceum.' This applied to every strata of society and Irving's appeal was crystallised by the Lyceum roar which greeted his appearances, giving the theatre a mass appeal later associated with the cinema.
The prosperous fortunes of the Lyceum slowly came to an end, prompted both by Irving's fall in 1896 which kept him invalided for some while and by a fire at the warehouse that destroyed virtually all their scenery.
