   A charming and fun experience that's super convenient for folks in, and
   around, Franklin.
   Compared to other venues, even the balcony affords a greater view and an
   intimate experience.
   There is an array of dining options nearby for the pre-event repast.
   Parking at the public deck by the county courthouse on 4th St is free and a
   three-minute walk away.
   What more could you need for a fun evening out?

   Loved seeing a comedy show here. My only complaint was there was only one
   person working the bar side. There was quite a long wait. Oh, and the
   bartender added water to our old fashioneds (I don't know why). But loved the
   venue and the experience.

   I came here for a meeting with the Visit Franklin people and the Downtown
   Franklin Association. The meeting was great, but it was hard to focus because
   of how beautiful this theater looks.
   
   It's over 80-years old and was renovated 10-years ago? I love the retro look
   of the lobby and all of the pictures on walls highlighting the venues
   history. They have officially opened the theatre back up for live concerts
   and will be starting their holiday movie nights once the season starts.
   
   When in Franklin, you must visit the theatre!

   The Franklin Theatre opened in 1937 and closed in 2007. Thankfully
   theFranklin and Williamson County Heritage Foundation raised eight million
   dollars to preserve and reopen the beautiful Franklin theatre.
   
   The 2021 calendar is filled with live performances of all kinds. (Music,
   movies, live theatre, dance and more) Tickets are available on their website
   along with an opportunity to donate for a great cause.

   My mom and I saw Gary Puckett and The Union Gap at the Franklin Theatre.
   
   It's a beautiful, smaller, older theatre.  I really don't think that there is
   bad seat in the house and I say this as we had seats in the absolute last
   row. The sound quality was great.
   
   Parking is very convenient, just use the parking structure across the street.
   
   They had a great selection of beer/wine and snacks in the lobby area.
   
   It appears that they have a nice variety of movies and concerts.  Artists
   come from far and and wide to entertain audiences at the Franklin Theatre.  I
   would highly recommend a visit!

   We visited for the awesome show of Lee Roy Parnell and Friends - including
   the beautiful Ms. Lisa Stewart and the incredible guitarists Seth James and
   Anson Funderburgh. These guys put on a helluva show.
   
   Lots of historic charm as Franklin theater was originally built in the
   1930's, fell into disrepair in the 00's and eventually went through a
   big-budget renovation and restoration.
   
   Incredible sound and lighting system, comfortable seats and an overall great
   feel to the place.  Loved the easy bar and concessions service.
   
   A great place to see a live show.

   Went there and saw the Glenn Miller Orchestra last weekend. It was beyond
   what I expected. First class staff and ushers. I had not been in the Franklin
   Theatre in over 30 years. It was an overall 5 star experience. Clean as a pin
   inside and very classy. I would go back in a heartbeat!

   The walk up to the theater is just as enchanting as the theater itself.
   Families eating ice cream on park benches whilst petting the family pooch.
   Couples strolling hand in hand after a quaint dinner. (Insert small town
   charm cliche here- you will see it)
   The theater is modern yet it retains all the old world charm of yesteryear.
   It s the perfect theater to be located on Main Street USA. The music and
   movie selections are varied and interesting... but never in poor taste. The
   bar has ample offerings. The seats are comfortable. The views are great from
   every seat. Boom. Boom. And boom. That checks all the boxes for me. 5 stars
   without hesitation.
   
   Pre show!
