The playhouse presented the first play in that building. In the early 1990's the two organizations drew up a contract that made the playhouse a renter of space and stage time. The playhouse would contract for 4 to 5 plays per year and negotiated a new contract yearly. The financial burden of an old, drafty, decaying building caused the SJCC and Tullahoma city to seek ways to recover some of the enormous cost. The result for the playhouse was increasing rent and reduced access to the good weekends because of increased SJCC programming. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse which had always been profitable was faced with reduced stage availability and increased rent. The playhouse often had to rent other facilities to recoup the good weekends. In time, SJCC began to produce plays on their own and the very identity of the playhouse became threatened. Even the mayor was honestly confused about who produced the play "12 Angry Men" when he wrote a very complimentary letter to the editor and attributed the play to SJCC. Loss of identity made selling program ads and seeking donations impossible because people had already given to the SJCC and didn't recognize the renter. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Ultimately, the playhouse found no solution to the high rent for limited stage access and were forced to relocate in order to remain solvent.

The playhouse would contract for 4 to 5 plays per year and negotiated a new contract yearly.

Even the mayor was honestly confused about who produced the play "12 Angry Men" when he wrote a very complimentary letter to the editor and attributed the play to SJCC.

The playhouse would contract for 4 to 5 plays per year and negotiated a new contract yearly. The financial burden of an old, drafty, decaying building caused the SJCC and Tullahoma city to seek ways to recover some of the enormous cost.

The playhouse often had to rent other facilities to recoup the good weekends. In time, SJCC began to produce plays on their own and the very identity of the playhouse became threatened. Even the mayor was honestly confused about who produced the play "12 Angry Men" when he wrote a very complimentary letter to the editor and attributed the play to SJCC. Loss of identity made selling program ads and seeking donations impossible because people had already given to the SJCC and didn't recognize the renter. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Ultimately, the playhouse found no solution to the high rent for limited stage access and were forced to relocate in order to remain solvent.

The playhouse presented the first play in that building. In the early 1990's the two organizations drew up a contract that made the playhouse a renter of space and stage time. The playhouse would contract for 4 to 5 plays per year and negotiated a new contract yearly. The financial burden of an old, drafty, decaying building caused the SJCC and Tullahoma city to seek ways to recover some of the enormous cost. The result for the playhouse was increasing rent and reduced access to the good weekends because of increased SJCC programming. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse which had always been profitable was faced with reduced stage availability and increased rent. The playhouse often had to rent other facilities to recoup the good weekends. In time, SJCC began to produce plays on their own and the very identity of the playhouse became threatened. Even the mayor was honestly confused about who produced the play "12 Angry Men" when he wrote a very complimentary letter to the editor and attributed the play to SJCC. Loss of identity made selling program ads and seeking donations impossible because people had already given to the SJCC and didn't recognize the renter. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Ultimately, the playhouse found no solution to the high rent for limited stage access and were forced to relocate in order to remain solvent. It is time for a new, modern, efficient theatre suitable for a city of our stature. The old SJCC building, albeit full of good memories and civic pride, is and will continue to be, a financial burden that is unbearable. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse is willing to write grants, conduct fund raisers, and seek financing for a new theatre and plan to go it alone or accept help from anyone who is willing.</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/tullahoma-tn/report/place/community-playhouse-of-tullahoma-tullahoma-tn.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

About Us:
The playhouse that originally was instrumental in renovating the South Jackson theatre was a profit sharing resident beginning in 1979. The playhouse presented the first play in that building. In the early 1990's the two organizations drew up a contract that made the playhouse a renter of space and stage time. The playhouse would contract for 4 to 5 plays per year and negotiated a new contract yearly. The financial burden of an old, drafty, decaying building caused the SJCC and Tullahoma city to seek ways to recover some of the enormous cost. The result for the playhouse was increasing rent and reduced access to the good weekends because of increased SJCC programming.
The playhouse which had always been profitable was faced with reduced stage availability and increased rent. The playhouse often had to rent other facilities to recoup the good weekends. In time, SJCC began to produce plays on their own and the very identity of the playhouse became threatened. Even the mayor was honestly confused about who produced the play "12 Angry Men" when he wrote a very complimentary letter to the editor and attributed the play to SJCC. Loss of identity made selling program ads and seeking donations impossible because people had already given to the SJCC and didn't recognize the renter.
Ultimately, the playhouse found no solution to the high rent for limited stage access and were forced to relocate in order to remain solvent. It is time for a new, modern, efficient theatre suitable for a city of our stature. The old SJCC building, albeit full of good memories and civic pride, is and will continue to be, a financial burden that is unbearable.
The playhouse is willing to write grants, conduct fund raisers, and seek financing for a new theatre and plan to go it alone or accept help from anyone who is willing.

The playhouse presented the first play in that building. In the early 1990's the two organizations drew up a contract that made the playhouse a renter of space and stage time. The playhouse would contract for 4 to 5 plays per year and negotiated a new contract yearly. The financial burden of an old, drafty, decaying building caused the SJCC and Tullahoma city to seek ways to recover some of the enormous cost. The result for the playhouse was increasing rent and reduced access to the good weekends because of increased SJCC programming. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse which had always been profitable was faced with reduced stage availability and increased rent. The playhouse often had to rent other facilities to recoup the good weekends. In time, SJCC began to produce plays on their own and the very identity of the playhouse became threatened. Even the mayor was honestly confused about who produced the play "12 Angry Men" when he wrote a very complimentary letter to the editor and attributed the play to SJCC. Loss of identity made selling program ads and seeking donations impossible because people had already given to the SJCC and didn't recognize the renter. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Ultimately, the playhouse found no solution to the high rent for limited stage access and were forced to relocate in order to remain solvent. It is time for a new, modern, efficient theatre suitable for a city of our stature. The old SJCC building, albeit full of good memories and civic pride, is and will continue to be, a financial burden that is unbearable. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse is willing to write grants, conduct fund raisers, and seek financing for a new theatre and plan to go it alone or accept help from anyone who is willing.</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/tullahoma-tn/report/place/community-playhouse-of-tullahoma-tullahoma-tn.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

The playhouse presented the first play in that building. In the early 1990's the two organizations drew up a contract that made the playhouse a renter of space and stage time. The playhouse would contract for 4 to 5 plays per year and negotiated a new contract yearly. The financial burden of an old, drafty, decaying building caused the SJCC and Tullahoma city to seek ways to recover some of the enormous cost. The result for the playhouse was increasing rent and reduced access to the good weekends because of increased SJCC programming. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse which had always been profitable was faced with reduced stage availability and increased rent. The playhouse often had to rent other facilities to recoup the good weekends. In time, SJCC began to produce plays on their own and the very identity of the playhouse became threatened. Even the mayor was honestly confused about who produced the play "12 Angry Men" when he wrote a very complimentary letter to the editor and attributed the play to SJCC. Loss of identity made selling program ads and seeking donations impossible because people had already given to the SJCC and didn't recognize the renter. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Ultimately, the playhouse found no solution to the high rent for limited stage access and were forced to relocate in order to remain solvent. It is time for a new, modern, efficient theatre suitable for a city of our stature. The old SJCC building, albeit full of good memories and civic pride, is and will continue to be, a financial burden that is unbearable. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse is willing to write grants, conduct fund raisers, and seek financing for a new theatre and plan to go it alone or accept help from anyone who is willing.</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/tullahoma-tn/report/place/community-playhouse-of-tullahoma-tullahoma-tn.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

The playhouse presented the first play in that building. In the early 1990's the two organizations drew up a contract that made the playhouse a renter of space and stage time. The playhouse would contract for 4 to 5 plays per year and negotiated a new contract yearly. The financial burden of an old, drafty, decaying building caused the SJCC and Tullahoma city to seek ways to recover some of the enormous cost. The result for the playhouse was increasing rent and reduced access to the good weekends because of increased SJCC programming. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse which had always been profitable was faced with reduced stage availability and increased rent. The playhouse often had to rent other facilities to recoup the good weekends. In time, SJCC began to produce plays on their own and the very identity of the playhouse became threatened. Even the mayor was honestly confused about who produced the play "12 Angry Men" when he wrote a very complimentary letter to the editor and attributed the play to SJCC. Loss of identity made selling program ads and seeking donations impossible because people had already given to the SJCC and didn't recognize the renter. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Ultimately, the playhouse found no solution to the high rent for limited stage access and were forced to relocate in order to remain solvent. It is time for a new, modern, efficient theatre suitable for a city of our stature. The old SJCC building, albeit full of good memories and civic pride, is and will continue to be, a financial burden that is unbearable. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse is willing to write grants, conduct fund raisers, and seek financing for a new theatre and plan to go it alone or accept help from anyone who is willing.</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/tullahoma-tn/report/place/community-playhouse-of-tullahoma-tullahoma-tn.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

The playhouse presented the first play in that building. In the early 1990's the two organizations drew up a contract that made the playhouse a renter of space and stage time. The playhouse would contract for 4 to 5 plays per year and negotiated a new contract yearly. The financial burden of an old, drafty, decaying building caused the SJCC and Tullahoma city to seek ways to recover some of the enormous cost. The result for the playhouse was increasing rent and reduced access to the good weekends because of increased SJCC programming. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse which had always been profitable was faced with reduced stage availability and increased rent. The playhouse often had to rent other facilities to recoup the good weekends. In time, SJCC began to produce plays on their own and the very identity of the playhouse became threatened. Even the mayor was honestly confused about who produced the play "12 Angry Men" when he wrote a very complimentary letter to the editor and attributed the play to SJCC. Loss of identity made selling program ads and seeking donations impossible because people had already given to the SJCC and didn't recognize the renter. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Ultimately, the playhouse found no solution to the high rent for limited stage access and were forced to relocate in order to remain solvent. It is time for a new, modern, efficient theatre suitable for a city of our stature. The old SJCC building, albeit full of good memories and civic pride, is and will continue to be, a financial burden that is unbearable. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse is willing to write grants, conduct fund raisers, and seek financing for a new theatre and plan to go it alone or accept help from anyone who is willing.</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/tullahoma-tn/report/place/community-playhouse-of-tullahoma-tullahoma-tn.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

The playhouse presented the first play in that building. In the early 1990's the two organizations drew up a contract that made the playhouse a renter of space and stage time. The playhouse would contract for 4 to 5 plays per year and negotiated a new contract yearly. The financial burden of an old, drafty, decaying building caused the SJCC and Tullahoma city to seek ways to recover some of the enormous cost. The result for the playhouse was increasing rent and reduced access to the good weekends because of increased SJCC programming. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse which had always been profitable was faced with reduced stage availability and increased rent. The playhouse often had to rent other facilities to recoup the good weekends. In time, SJCC began to produce plays on their own and the very identity of the playhouse became threatened. Even the mayor was honestly confused about who produced the play "12 Angry Men" when he wrote a very complimentary letter to the editor and attributed the play to SJCC. Loss of identity made selling program ads and seeking donations impossible because people had already given to the SJCC and didn't recognize the renter. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Ultimately, the playhouse found no solution to the high rent for limited stage access and were forced to relocate in order to remain solvent. It is time for a new, modern, efficient theatre suitable for a city of our stature. The old SJCC building, albeit full of good memories and civic pride, is and will continue to be, a financial burden that is unbearable. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The playhouse is willing to write grants, conduct fund raisers, and seek financing for a new theatre and plan to go it alone or accept help from anyone who is willing.</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/tullahoma-tn/report/place/community-playhouse-of-tullahoma-tullahoma-tn.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.
