Lyric Theatre

The Lyric Theatre was listed in the 1914-1915 American Motion Picture Directory. In 1914 the Lyric and another house called the Bijou were being run by a Harry H. Burford, mentioned multiple times in the trade journals that year. There was news about the Lyric Theatre in the February 13, 1915 issue of Moving Picture World:

“The Lyric theater at Tower avenue and Twelfth street in Superior, Wis., has been taken over by the Northland Theater Company of that place, which also operates the Princess theater and which has secured a site for another house at Tower avenue and Fourteenth street. Frank C. Buckley will be manager of the newly acquired house, having resigned his position as ticket agent at the Union depot, which he held for a decade, in order to devote all his time to the amusement enterprises of the company. The house has been remodeled and will be operated on the same policy as that ruling at the Princess, featuring high class pictures. The object of erecting a large house at Tower and Fourteenth street survives despite the acquisition of a theater in that vicinity.”
