The building is absolutely stunning. It feels like you’re stepping back in time as soon as you enter the theatre. The cartoons, sing-along, and organ performance before the show is a rare and fun experience. I could just sit in this theatre for hours admiring how beautiful it is. It is such a great piece of history for this city. They have parking in a lot across the street designated for the theatre visitors, they have plenty of security and the staff is very friendly!
Brittany WolchAwesome historic movie theater. Much like the Saenger theaters, very ornate. It has become a Christmas tradition to come watch It’s A Wonderful Life in the old place. Very fun, plus a bar that serves drinks and food.
Justin TaylorIt'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.
