Southern Tennessee Area Arts Repertory (STAAR) is an arts and theater organization based in Pulaski, Giles County, Tennessee, with a mission of providing theater, music and arts entertainment and education in the Southern Middle Tennessee and North Alabama region for which it has done for more than 20 years. STAAR Theatre currently operates a successful 200-seat theatre from its comfortable and accessible street-level facility beneath historic Antoinette Hall.

Antoinette Hall was built in 1868 and served as an Opera House for traveling troupes, local productions, graduations, lectures and other cultural events before closing in 1918. The once Grand Proscenium staging, with private box seating and notable acoustics was written about as ‘… one of the largest and most magnificent halls this side of Cincinnati” in news reports of the day. The building, is located on the east side of the public square facing the Giles County Courthouse and is a contributing structure to the Pulaski Courthouse Square Historic District. The District was placed on the National Register of Historic Places by the United States Department of the Interior in 1985. The Antoinette Hall Preservation Society (AHPS) is a companion organization to STAAR that was born of the desire to restore the historic Antoinette Hall so that it can once again become a center of arts and culture for the community and the region.
