The Franklin Theatre

The Franklin Theatre’s iconic neon sign is the centerpiece of Downtown Franklin. Opened in 1937 and refurbished in 2011, the theater now offers an ongoing lineup of concerts, live theater performances, and movies (mostly second-run and classics). You can purchase beer and wine at the concession stand, as well as Showtime chocolate bars, created exclusively for The Franklin by local chocolatier, Schakolad.
