Since 1976...

Theatre Knoxville, affectionately known as TKD, proudly holds the title of Knoxville’s oldest continuously operating, non-academic, all-volunteer, non-profit community theater. It all began in March 1976 when Knoxville Community Theatre (KCT) was chartered with a mission to promote theater in the Knoxville metropolitan area and train aspiring performers. In 1988, the organization changed its name to Theatre Knoxville (TK) and later became Theatre Knoxville Downtown (TKD) when it found its home at 319 North Gay Street in 2005.

  The Birds was a thought provoking romp through twists and turns.
