I too saw A Delicate Balance there so many years ago.
I saw Pink Flamingos here when I was 17 years old in 1974. I remember the floor was wooden and uncarpeted.
Oops, it was opened as the Savoy, not the Lyric!
I am told that the Booker-T was originally built about 1919 as the Lyric. The building is up for restoration but may not be used as a cinema.
Go to View link and select the link to Booker T
I think this is the theater where Joseph Cotten got his start in legitimate theater.
The Cameo was a dollar house in the 1970’s. It had a small second lobby before one entered the balcony. I remember back then the second lobby still had its 1930’s era ashtrays and armchairs. The smoking area was the balcony.
