I was the last manager of the Lyric. It was part of a group, Indianapolis Amusement, that included the Circle and Indiana theaters which still stand.
When I arrived it was ahard ticket house. “Shoes of the Fisherman” and “Where eagles dare” we’re the last two films played there. It was a regal beauty. The basement still housed rehearsal areas and dressing rooms. Those rooms had the names of cities on the door but I never knew why. Any organ was long since gone.
