We cannot understate the impact that local theater has on each of our lives, and our community as a whole. Each high-caliber Studio Tenn production brings us new ideas, forgotten stories, or unfamiliar points of view. And each time we sit in the darkened theater enjoying a Studio Tenn performance, the show’s tenderness, joy, sadness, or amusement causes a softening within everyone in the room — those onstage, offstage, and those beside us — that strengthens our bonds and brings our community together.

We are grateful to every one of you for helping make Studio Tenn possible, for giving us the feeling of Broadway here in Middle Tennessee, and for exposing us to such great talent in our sweet town of Franklin. 

Come one, come all!
