As the curtain went up on Studio Tenn’s 2023-24 season, the company celebrated an important milestone — the grand opening of its permanent home, the newly renovated Turner Theater at The Factory at Franklin. Named for longtime supporter Cal Turner, the flexible space seats 319 guests and features state-of-the-art sound and lighting, an orchestra room wired for sound and more. The sleek marquee and box office lead to a spacious lobby with herringbone wood floors and Art Deco accents. It’s a lovely space. But more importantly, Turner Theater gives Studio Tenn an elegant atmosphere that matches the quality of its shows.
