Children's Theatres
Children's theater, more than mere entertainment, is an education of the arts and an inspiration to bring out the innate creativity of children. Across Tennessee, a wealth of worthy shows and activities are available, whether at the Nashville Children's Theatre, hailed as the oldest children's theatre in the country, or Knoxville's new Children's Theatre, providing quality through acting classes, camps, and plays.

Founded in 1931 by the Junior League of Nashville, the Nashville Children's Theatre is the longest running children's theatre in the U.S. In downtown Music City, the theatre was ranked by Time magazine as one of the top five children's theatres in the country.
