(Photos by Liesa Cole) When the Lyric Theatre opened its doors last September for its first live performance in almost 60 years, the space looked markedly different than at its last event. Guests had to bring their own chairs for seating on the empty plywood floor. The space had been deemed safe by the city, but the proscenium arch was shedding gold plaster,
piumini moncler, ceiling gashes showed rot and the Rococo chandeliers looked like they d been waiting a half century for heads to drop onto. Actually, by the time of the concert it was looking pretty good, says Glenny Brock, who had spent the last four years working to bring the city s only standing Vaudeville theater back to life. Besides, most of the audience had already seen the space at a volunteer cleanup or an open-house tour. They just wanted to hear some big-band jazz in a place that had hosted Buster Keaton, Roy Rogers and the Marx Brothers. Never mind that the mildewed fire curtain still boasted asbestos in big letters. Brock was mainly interested in the acoustics. The concert would be a first step in what is now the Light Up the Lyric campaign, nonprofit Birmingham Landmarks push to restore the playhouse by 2014, a century after it originally opened. It was important to prove the space still had acoustic chops, if no seats. It has been a full 20 years since Birmingham Landmarks the late Cecil Whitmire and his band of volunteers resurrected the Alabama Theatre and its Mighty Wurlitzer organ. This time around the nonprofit of seven employees will need to drum up $7 million to open the doors. But Brock is convinced that after decades of false starts, conditions are right to finally strip off the plaster.
