Lyric Closed

According to the sign on the door, the property has been seized for nonpayment of Tennessee taxes. Don't know exactly what taxes haven't been paid, but apparently, it must be a lot of them to garner this much action from the state.

Problem is, the property is owned by the city of Loudon. The city leased it to one individual who then subleased it to the current lessor, Jerry Ragle. According to the Lyric Theater website, there were a number of events coming up including a sold out Elvis impersonator last Saturday night.

According to a post on the Historic Loudon Theater Facebook page, the theater has ceased operations immediately until further notice.
