Studio Rental at Nashville Public Television

Nashville Public Television’s rental studio is conveniently located 2 miles from downtown Nashville and just 7 miles from Nashville International Airport.

NPT’s Studio A measures 60′ x 80′ wall to wall with useable floor space measuring 50′ x 75′ excluding the cyc pit. All available lighting is included in the package, which includes a generous supply of 2ks and 5ks. Three walls of the studio are covered with an unbleached muslin cyc, and is illuminated by three color cyc strips at the top and bottom.

NPT’s studio rental includes a make-up room with two dressing rooms, a green room, and a portion of the prop area. Tables and chairs for catering, craft services, or any other needs are available for a small charge.

NPT’s studio can be rented alone if you prefer to use your own crew and equipment, or the full package can be rented that includes studio cameras and a full control room. Our experienced freelance professionals are available to crew your production as an extra service if needed.

Props
The Nashville Repertory Theatre offices and prop department are located in our building.  The Rep maintains a large, hard to find prop inventory.  These can be rented separately from the studio.
