===Theatres=== [[File:Sheffield Theatres.jpg|thumb|The [[Crucible Theatre]] (centre) and Lyceum Theatre (right)]] Sheffield has two large theatres, the [[Lyceum Theatre (Sheffield)|Lyceum Theatre]] and the [[Crucible Theatre]], which together with the smaller [[Studio Theatre (Sheffield)|Studio Theatre]] make up the largest theatre complex outside London, located in [[Tudor Square]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.sheffieldtheatres.co.uk/creativedevelopmentprogramme/corporate_learning.asp |title=Sheffield Theatres Education : Corporate Learning |access-date=24 August 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110927224100/http://www.sheffieldtheatres.co.uk/creativedevelopmentprogramme/corporate_learning.asp |archive-date=27 September 2011 |publisher=Sheffield Theatres}}</ref> The Crucible Theatre, a grade II listed building, is the home (since 1977) of the [[World Snooker Championships]], which sees most of Tudor Square and the adjoining Winter Garden used for side events, and hosts many well-known stage productions throughout the year from local, national and international performance groups. The theatre was awarded the Barclays 'Theatre of the Year Award' in 2001. Between 2007 and 2009, the theatre underwent a Β£15 million refurbishment during which time major internal and external improvements were carried out. The Lyceum, which opened in 1897, serves as a venue for touring [[West End theatre|West End productions]] and operas by [[Opera North]], as well as locally produced shows. Sheffield also has the Montgomery Theatre, a small 420 seater theatre located a short distance from Tudor Square, opposite the town hall on Surrey Street.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.montgomerytheatre.org.uk/ |title=Home | The Montgomery |publisher=Montgomerytheatre.org.uk |access-date=3 October 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121102024544/http://www.montgomerytheatre.org.uk/ |archive-date=2 November 2012 |url-status=live}}</ref> There are also a large number of smaller amateur theatres scattered throughout the city.
