Tennessee Performing Arts Center
The city's premier venue for theater and stage performances hosts almost all of the city's biggest performing arts groups: Tennessee Repertory Theatre, Nashville Opera and Nashville Ballet. (The Nashville Symphony has its own home, the Schermerhorn Symphony Center.) One of the most popular draws is the HCA/Tristar Broadway at TPAC Series, which has attracted world-class touring shows, from Camelot to Spamalot.
