The National Theatre was founded in 1963 by Laurence Olivier and initially located at the Old Vic before moving to the purpose-built South Bank venue in 1976. The Lyttelton is named after Oliver Lyttelton, Viscount Chandos, whose parents were among the earliest effective campaigners for the National Theatre. The auditorium is a mid-sized space with a capacity for 890 people. It has an adjustable proscenium arch with excellent sightlines from the majority of seats.
