Some people change a moment. Martha Rivers Ingram changed the future. Martha gave Tennessee a place where stories could be shared, artists could inspire, and generations of people could experience the joy of live performance together. Her determination and unwavering belief in the performing arts transformed an idea into Tennessee Performing Arts Center, a gift that has enriched our community for more than four decades. Every time these lights dim, every time an audience gathers in anticipation, every time a child experiences live theatre for the first time, we are reminded that none of it would exist without Martha’s courage to imagine something greater than what was. Her vision expanded opportunities for communities across Tennessee through access to worldclass performances and arts education. Those who knew Martha admired not only what she accomplished, but the way she accomplished it. She led with grace, humility, generosity, and a quiet confidence that inspired others to believe in a shared vision for the state of Tennessee. As TPAC continues to grow and serve future generations, we do so on the foundation Martha created. Her vision did more than shape our past. It continues to guide our future. Her legacy lives not only in the walls of this building. It lives in the memories created here, the artists welcomed to our stages, the students whose lives have been changed through the arts, and the countless moments of connection that continue to unfold because of her extraordinary leadership. We are profoundly grateful for Martha Ingram’s life, her vision, and the enduring gift she gave our city and the state of Tennessee. dnaL eeThank nocO yb denyou, wo era Martha. seitinema rehto dna etatse laeR .ylno sesoprup lanoitomorp rof tiderc bulC .syadiloh sedulcxe dna egnahc ot tcejbus era ytilibaliava dna setaR sdlonyeR ni etatse laer denwo-CDLO yub ot sreffo fo noitaticilos a ron lles ot reffo na eb ot dednetni ton si sihT .seitrap-driht yb denwo seitreporp fo elas ro gnitekram eht sah ycnega laredeF oN .gnihtyna gningis erofeb ti daer dna wal laredeF yb deriuqer tropeR ytreporP eht niatbo ,seitreporp CDLO roF .snoitatimil rehto ro ,seud pihsrebmem orf elbaWe liava si promise tnemetats hcus to fo ycare poc a dnfor a noiswhat simmoC eyou tatsE laeso R awthoughtfully oI eht htiw delfi neebbuilt. sah tnemetats gnireffo nA .GNIREFFO SIHT DEIFILAUQSID RO ,DENIMAXE


A NOTE FROM

JENNIFER TURNER President & CEO

Welcome to Tennessee Performing Arts Center and the start of another extraordinary season. Each new season brings with it the anticipation of unforgettable performances, new discoveries and the moments only live theater can create. Whether you’re joining us for the first time or returning as a longtime supporter, thank you for making TPAC part of your story. This season also marks an exciting time in TPAC’s own journey. As momentum continues to build around our future home on Nashville’s East Bank, we’re inspired by what’s ahead, not only for TPAC, but for our city and everyone who believes in the power of the arts. The response to the newly unveiled designs has been extraordinary, reinforcing a shared vision for a performing arts center that will welcome more audiences, support more artists and create even greater opportunities for connection and creativity. While we look ahead with great anticipation, our nonprofit mission remains unchanged. Every performance we present, every student we reach, and every community member we welcome is at the heart of why TPAC exists. We are committed to creating meaningful experiences that enrich lives, strengthen connections and make the arts accessible to all. The future of TPAC is bright because of people like you. Together, we’re not only experiencing incredible performances today, we’re helping shape the future of the performing arts in Tennessee. Enjoy the performance! Warm regards,

Jennifer Turner President & CEO

Streisand (Grammy nomination, Record of the Year) as well as seven albums for Diamond, including The Jazz Singer. Other producing credits include albums for Frank Sinatra, Marvin Gaye, Diana Ross, Michael Jackson and the soundtrack for the film of Little Shop of Horrors. Several songs co-written with Bob Crewe have been cover hits for such artists as the Tremeloes (“Silence Is Golden”), the Walker Brothers (“The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine Anymore”) and Lauryn Hill (“Can’t Take My Eyes Off You”). Gaudio produced and co-wrote the Who Loves You album for The Four Seasons and one of Billboard’s longest-charted singles (54 weeks), “Oh, What a Night.” A high point in his career came in 1990 when, as a member of the original Four Seasons, Gaudio was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In 1995, he was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, which hailed him as “a quintessential music-maker.” Gaudio co-produced the hit Broadway show A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical, and the Jersey Boys film with Nick Jonas as Frankie Valli. In 2022, Gaudio’s song “Beggin’” recorded by Måneskin, an Italian rock group, was chosen as Favorite Song of the Year by The American Music Awards. Gaudio is currently working on a project relating to Frank Sinatra’s Watertown album. To this day, Bob Gaudio and Frankie Valli still maintain their partnership...on a handshake. BOB CREWE (Lyricist). “New York was pregnant in the fifties,” says Bob Crewe, “gestating with possibilities.” Crewe and music partner Frank Slay became independent writer-producers when the category hadn’t yet been invented. In 1957 they wrote and produced “Silhouettes” for The Rays, which skyrocketed to #1. Suddenly, producers in demand, they launched Freddie Cannon’s “Tallahassee Lassie” and Billy & Lillie’s “Lah Dee Da.” Crewe’s 1960’s unprecedented producing success with The Four Seasons birthed a new sound, striking a major chord in American pop. “Sherry,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” “Walk Like a Man,” “Candy Girl,” “Ronnie” – all smashes! When lead Frankie Valli demanded a solo turn, Crewe and Bob Gaudio wrote (and Crewe produced) “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You,” which eventually became the century’s fifth most-played song. Crewe ran hot with artists from


18 | encore Vicki Carr, Oliver and Lesley Gore to Mitch Ryder, co-writing with Charles Fox the soundtrack for Jane Fonda’s film, “Barbarella.” Then his own Bob Crewe Generation exploded with “Music to Watch Girls By”. In 1972 Bob was in L.A., where he revived Frankie Valli with “My Eyes Adored You” by Crewe and Kenny Nolan. They also co-wrote Patti LaBelle’s “Lady Marmalade” (#1, July ’75), which was a hit again on the soundtrack of Moulin Rouge (#1, June ’01). DES McANUFF (Original Director) is a two-time Tony Award–winning director and former artistic director of Canada’s Stratford Festival. He is also director emeritus of La Jolla Playhouse, where as artistic director he staged over 30 productions of classics, new plays and musicals. He’s co-founder of Broadway’s Dodgers.
