  • Studio Tenn’s 14th Season opens with a rock ‘n’ roll experience like you’ve never seen before! On Dec. 4,1956, Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Carl Perkins gathered for one night to play and sing; little did they know they were also making music history. A reporter who was there wrote, ‘This quartet could sell a million.’ Consequently, they were dubbed the Million Dollar Quartet. This was their only collaborative performance, a cultural flashpoint that caught rock ‘n’ roll at the moment of creation. Step inside the greatest jam session ever recorded with four of music’s most legendary musicians doing what they loved most: expressing life’s joy and sadness through song.

    Million Dollar Quartet will have you rocking down memory lane with more than 20 chart-topping hits like “Blue Suede Shoes”, “Great Balls of Fire”, “I Walk the Line”, and “Hound Dog”.

  • Middle Tennessee’s newest holiday tradition is back. Studio Tenn is delighted to revive our critically acclaimed production of It’s a Wonderful Life, A Live Radio Play for the second year. It’s A Wonderful Life, A Live Radio Play is set on a snowy Christmas Eve inside a local radio station which features a multi-talented ensemble of five actors who bring to life every heartwarming character, the iconic town of Bedford Falls, and the story of an idealistic George Bailey as he considers the course his life has taken up to this one fateful night. A Heaven-sent gift for the entire family.

  • Driving Miss Daisy by Alfred Uhry is a story rooted in the Deep South, which follows the decades-long relationship between a strong-willed, well-to-do Jewish woman and her Black chauffeur in the Jim Crow era. Set against a backdrop of changing world events between the late 1940s and early 1970s, what begins as a troubled and hostile pairing soon blossoms into a profound, life-altering friendship that transcends all the societal boundaries placed between them. With humor and heartfelt emotion, Alfred Uhry’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play poignantly explores the transformative power of true friendship.

  • Willkommen, bienvenue, welcome…to Cabaret! Our 23-24 Season closes with one of the most successful and poignant musicals of all time. The award-winning musical is brought to life through the transformation of Studio Tenn’s Turner Theater into a moody and seductive Kit Kat Club. Kander and Ebb’s legendary musical is about a British cabaret singer, Sally Bowles, American writer Cliff Bradshaw, and a leering and flamboyant Emcee, set among the decadence of 1929 Berlin. Cabaret explores the dark, heady, and tumultuous life of Berlin's natives and expat’s as Germany slowly yields to the emerging Third Reich. As mounting fears and uncertainty rise outside the club, life inside grows more and more beautiful.

    Musical numbers include "Willkommen", "Cabaret", "Don't Tell Mama", and "Maybe This Time”.
