Lyric Ave, a Richmond-based group of creative artists specializing in poetry and variety-based performances, will celebrate its sixth anniversary with an 8 p.m. show July 11 at the Lincoln Theatre in Washington. The group, which features creative disciplines including acting, poetry, comedy and music, started by performing in nightclubs, such as the Underground in Shockoe Bottom, from 2003 to 2006. In 2007, it took its show to the Empire Theatre, where its audience grew to 600. Since 2008, the group has been performing at the Byrd Theatre, where it’s doubled its audience to 1,200.
