The Theatre Royal

is situated on the east side of Williamson-square. The building is of brick: the front of stone, with emblematical figures in bas-relief. The interior decorations are new and beautiful; the stage is spacious, and the voice is heard most intelligibly in the remotest part of the building.

The Royal Amphitheatre

is situated in Great Charlotte-street. Externally it is stuccoed, in imitation of stone. The interior is both ornamental and commodious. It is principally intended for equestrian performances, and pantomimic exhibitions.

The Liver Theatre

is situated at the top of Church-street. The interior is tastefully fitted up: it has an excellent stage, and the managers have deservedly received a large portion of public patronage. Open from December to May.

The Queen's Theatre, Or Circus,

is situated in Christian-street. It was originally designed for equestrian performances: it is, howerer, of late, more frequently used as a Minor Theatre, for which purpose it is equally well adapted.

The Sans Pareil

is situated in Great Charlotte-street. Its chief recommendation is the cheapness and variety of its performances. Open from December to May.
