It's Easy to Join the Showplace Society!

Join now to light up the Lyric for the next hundred years — and double your gift to the Alabama Theatre.

Saving the Alabama Theatre in 1987 laid the groundwork for us to save the Lyric almost 30 years later. Now, the Showplace Society membership program will support both venues for generations to come — with special consideration for the Showplace of the South. For the first 10 years of the membership program, the Linn-Henley Charitable Trust is matching membership dollar for dollar, up to $50,000 per year — a total of $500,000 earmarked for the Alabama for a decade.

Opened in 1914, the Lyric is the only surviving vaudeville theatre in Birmingham. The Alabama Theatre is a 1927 movie palace with a one-of-a-kind Mighty Wurlitzer theatre organ. By becoming a member of the Showplace Society, you can preserve and protect these unique venues for generations to come.
