About Us

Lancelyn Theatre Supplies was founded in 1971 in Oxford by Scirard Lancelyn-Green, whilst he was studying at Oxford University. Scirard had a keen interest in local amateur dramatics and educational venues and hence Lancelyn Theatres Supplies was set up to furnish both hire and sales possibilities.

Lancelyn Theatre Supplies was established in 1971. We have been supplying and installing quality education and professional drama and theatrical equipment for 40 years.

We have a long history ... Moreof installation and service work, and are proud to be one of the very few companies in the industry who have enough installation and service work consistently to maintain a fully employed installation team all year.

Shortly after establishing the company, Scirard inherited his families' estate in Bebington in the Wirral. It is on this estate that our North West branch now operates from.

The company has remained a Sole Proprietorship for 36 years, under Scirard, who incidentally is a Lloyds name, but now comprised of two branches; one at Oxford and the other at Bebington.

It is unique within the Industry that Scirard's ancestry can be traced back to the same address for 924 years! Less
