Street Corner Symphony – The Franklin Theatre – Events in Downtown Franklin, TN
Street Corner Symphony is an a cappella group based out of Nashville, Tennessee. They became internationally known in 2010 after becoming runners up on Season 2 of NBC’s all vocal competition, The Sing-Off.
These southern gents quickly won over Sing-Off judges Ben Folds, Shawn Stockman, and Nicole Scherzinger and an NBC primetime audience after demonstrating their unique laid back, yet dynamic style of a cappella. The group consists of three brothers; Jeremy Lister, Jonathan Lister, and Richie Lister; along with Adam Chance, Kurt Zimmerman, and Mark McLemore. Five out of six members were raised the sons of ministers. Since their success on The Sing-Off, Street Corner Symphony has been making records and performing for audiences across the country and around the world.

Studio Tenn – The Elephant Man By Bernard Pomerance
Jamison Theater in The Factory at Franklin – February 16 – 26, 2017
This Tony Award-winning drama is based on the true life of Joseph (“John”) Merrick, a medical mystery of Victorian England who toured Europe as a freak show attraction. His shocking disfigurement afforded him little social contact, apart from the gawking of onlookers indulging their own morbid curiosity. When an esteemed doctor takes Merrick into his care, he begins to see past the Elephant Man’s unsightliness, discovering a remarkable intellect, heart and hunger for human connection. The role of Merrick calls for his malformation to be conveyed through the actor’s physicality, without the aid of makeup or prosthetics—a poignant allusion to what lies below the surface.

Events & Things to Do in Franklin, TN!!
Ramona Quimby – The Franklin Theatre
Unpredictable. Exasperating. Boisterous and independent. That’s Ramona Quimby for you. Always aggravating her older sister, Beezus, constantly getting into trouble and sometimes “making a big, noisy fuss” when things don’t go her way.
As narrator, Beezus (Beatrice Quimby) introduces the Quimby family and friends and thereby sets the scene for the collection of vignettes that trace Ramona’s tumultuous passage through third grade and through her family relationships. At school, she throws a tantrum when provoked by a classmate and is sent home in disgrace. The teacher’s wrath, an important family wedding, persistent sibling bickering and Mr. Quimby’s attempts to give up smoking are part of the fabric that shape a humorous, loving family portrait.
Sat, Jan 28 10:00 AM
This show is performed by the talented kids and teens of Act Too Players.
