Jewly Hight: It really is not often that we get to see a cultural institution reach the centennial mark. And I think it’s even rarer that we have a year like this, when there are two cultural institutions in Nashville that have both reached their centennial, the Grand Ole Opry and the Belcourt Theatre.

Justin Barney: And their histories and their paths have intertwined in ways that we know, and ways that we are about to find out.

Did you know that the Belcourt Theatre and Grand Ole Opry are both celebrating 100th birthdays this year? Turns out, these Nashville institutions also have entwined histories.
