This vaudeville-era theater first opened in 1914 in the Central Texas town of Brownwood. Although designed and operated as a performance space, like many small theaters, it was transitioned into a cinema in the 1920's.

Brownwood was home to the US Army's Camp Bowie during WWII. During the late 30's and early 40's downtown Brownwood's population grew to 100,000 and had 7 cinemas operating at full tilt. As the war ended many of those closed and even the venerable Lyric was converted into a clothing store.

A century after its original opening, the Lyric is once again a home for the performing arts in Brownwood. A herculean restoration effort has restored the theater to its original glory and then some with the addition of modern staging, lighting and sound. Today live theater, musical acts and film once again grace this historic proscenium.

10/10 Excellent

"Spotless rooms. Friendly, hard-working staff that was attentive to our needs. We will stay again."

Comfort Inn Early Brownwood

10/10 Excellent

"For a hotel directly off the highway and definitely has aged there were none of the typical bad smells and it was very clean. My daughter who was a flight attendant said it was very impressive how well the property has been maintained. The staff were very friendly. Breakfast was normal but had a great selection. Kids enjoyed the pool."

Royal Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I love this place so much!! The rooms were so cute and comfortable. The staff was amazing. There was a medium sized fridge (close to a full), microwave, love seat, desk, chair & coffee maker in the room. It reminded me of the 80's. It was so quiet that I didn't hear a thing all night. I appreciated everything & will definitely stay again."
