The Ritz is listed in Eric Ledell Smith’s book African American Theater Buildings: An Illustrated Historical Directory. It’s possible that the Ritz was the successor to a theater built in 1929 at Avenue A and 19th Street. The item about its construction in the August 13, 1929 Lubbock Morning Avalanche didn’t give the name of that house.
The Ritz Theatre was listed as seating around 250 people.
