TPAC - Andrew Johnson Theater

Comment on Facebook

The Tennessee Performing Arts Center (TPAC) is one of the most unique facilities of its kind in the U.S. TPAC is home to three beautiful spaces with multiple, state-of-the art capabilities. Andrew Johnson Theater is the most flexible performance space in the Tennessee Performing Arts Center, and with a maximum seating capacity of only 256, it is also the most intimate. Designed to encourage experimentation in theatre, music, and dance, it offers freedom in spatial arrangement for both audience and performers, including the popular "in-the-round" seating.

Rental Information: Please call (615) 782-4000 between 8:30am and 5:30pm, Monday through Friday, or visit web site for more information about rentals.

The other day in the neighborhood park, little Benjamin whacked his playmate Henry with a stick, breaking two teeth. So it is important that the parents of the boys set the right example and sit down to discuss the matter calmly and reasonably, right? After all, nothing will be gained by behaving like children… Human nature, red in tooth and claw. Yasmina...
