Broadway’s newest smash hit BEAUTIFUL – THE CAROLE KING MUSICAL makes Music City debut May 23-28

Long before she was Carole King, chart-topping music legend, she was Carol Klein, Brooklyn girl with passion and chutzpah. She fought her way into the record business as a teenager and, by the time she reached her twenties, had the husband of her dreams and a flourishing career writing hits for the biggest acts in rock ‘n’ roll. But it wasn’t until her personal life began to crack that she finally managed to find her true voice.

Now, the Tony and Grammy Award-winning Broadway hit about the early life and career of the legendary and ground- breaking singer/songwriter Carole King, makes its Nashville premiere at TPAC’s Andrew Jackson Hall May 23-28, 2017.

Beautiful – The Carole King Musical tells the inspiring true story of King’s remarkable rise to stardom, from being part of a hit songwriting team with her husband Gerry Goffin, to her relationship with fellow writers and best friends Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann, to becoming one of the most successful solo acts in popular music history. Along the way, she made more than beautiful music, she wrote the soundtrack to a generation.

Featuring a stunning array of beloved songs written by Gerry Goffin/Carole King and Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil, including “I Feel The Earth Move”, “One Fine Day", “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman”, “You’ve Got A Friend” and the title song, Beautiful has a book by Tony Award-nominee and Academy Award-nominated writer Douglas McGrath, direction by Marc Bruni, choreography by Josh Prince, and took home two 2014 Tony Awards and a 2015 Grammy Award.

Tickets for Beautiful – The Carole King Musical are on sale now at TPAC.org, by phone at 615-782-4040 and at the TPAC Box Office. For groups of 10 or more, call 615-782-4060.
