General Information
The Tennessee Performing Arts Center (TPAC) opened in September 1980 and is one of the
nation’s most unusual performing arts facilities. Three well-designed theaters are located in the
James K. Polk Cultural Center and State Office Building, an 18-story office tower that also houses
the Tennessee State Museum. In July 2002, TPAC underwent a 15-month, $7.9 million
improvement project to renovate Andrew Jackson Hall lobby, which included a custom designed
marquee.
TPAC is owned by the State of Tennessee and operated by the Tennessee Performing Arts
Center Management Corporation, a not-for-profit Tennessee corporation.
Three performing spaces in the complex can easily accommodate major musical, dance,
theatrical, and television productions as well as a variety of events such as awards programs,
films, pageants, product launches, and meetings. Our fourth performance space, War Memorial
Auditorium, is adjacent to the center is War Memorial Auditorium on 7th Avenue North between

The Rehearsal Hall is located on Level 1, two floors below Jackson and Polk stages. The 40’ 11” x
51’ 6” space is suitable for dance, symphony, and other types of rehearsals. The Rehearsal Hall is
centrally located in the backstage area of the building, near dressing rooms and restrooms. It is
not generally considered a public performance space, although it is accessible via the stage door
entrance. There is a pipe grid installed over the room at a 15’4” height, but no electrical/dimmer
system. Full length mirrors cover one wall, with curtains capable of being drawn to mask the
mirrors, as well as acoustically dampen the room. The floor is covered with vinyl over a sprung
plywood floor. The Rehearsal Hall is considered a separate hall for booking purposes and is not
automatically affiliated with the rental of theater space. Reservations must be made to hold the
Rehearsal Hall for use.
