March 2021 Experience | 5 Loretta Lynn: My Story in My Words March 6, 4:30 pm; March 7, 2:30 pm, March 13, 7:00 pm

Long established as the undisputed Queen of Country Music, Loretta Lynn has more than 50 years of recording and touring to her name. A self-taught guitarist and songwriter, she was one of the most distinctive performers in Nashville in the 1960s and ‘70s, tackling boundary-pushing topics drawn from her own life experiences as a wife and mother.

Taking viewers back to the time when Lynn hit the airwaves, My Story follows the music icon’s rise to record-breaking artist, topping the charts with her feisty female anthems, including “You Ain’t Woman Enough,” “Don’t Come Home A’ Drinkin’ (With Lovin’ on Your Mind)” and “Fist City.”

This year marks the 50th anniversary of “Coal Miner’s Daughter.” Like so many other songs written by Lynn, the lyrics told the story of her life and spoke to women who struggled to make ends meet. Lynn’s simple, straightforward song stories gave legitimacy to the joys, heartaches, struggles and triumphs of daily life. Using archival audio interviews and classic performances, this program lets Lynn be the storyteller of her own remarkable life. (Photos: David McClister.) I

Joe Bonamassa: Live From the Ryman | Monday, March 8, 8:00 pm; Saturday, March 13, 8:30 pm: Blues rock superstar Joe Bonamassa set out to perform his brand-new music for fans amidst a global entertainment shutdown. This led to an incredible live concert at the legendary Ryman Auditorium. This special show includes the critically acclaimed songs from his latest solo studio album “Royal Tea,” inspired by his British guitar heroes Jeff Beck, John Mayall, Eric Clapton and Cream. Joe also performs a few songs from his debut album “A New Day Yesterday” which helped launch his illustrious career. (Photo: Chris Wood.)

Fast-Forward | Wednesday, March 24, 10:00 pm: If you could see your family’s future, would you change anything? Fast-Forward follows four millennials and their parents as they travel through time to meet their future selves. Wearing an MIT- produced “aging empathy suit” and working with professional make-up artists, they grapple with the realizations, conversations and mindset required to age successfully. They revisit their plans, make big changes, and approach the rest of their lives with a whole new perspective. Ultimately, the families learn they have more control over how they age than they thought.

Twyla Moves on American Masters | Friday, March 26, 9:00 pm: A pioneer of both modern dance and ballet, legendary choreographer Twyla Tharp’s career and famously rigorous creative process is explored. The film features never-before seen interviews and select performances from Tharp’s vast array of more than 160 choreographed works. The program also follows Tharp’s latest dance piece. It was created virtually during the pandemic as she built a high-profile work from the ground up with an international cast of ballet stars, including Misty Copeland, Herman Cornejo and Maria Khoreva.
