It was still known as the Happy Hour Theatre in 1929, but by 1931 had been renamed Lyric Theater. In the 1950’s it received a facelift and marquee along with its balcony. In 1967 the final show was “Beach Blanket Bingo”. After several owners, in the late summer of 2016 the Theater opened its doors again for movies, live performances and events.
