Getting away with murder can be so much fun . . . and there’s no better proof than the knock-‘em-dead hit show that’s earned unanimous raves and won the 2014 Tony Award for Best Musical – A Gentleman’s Guide to Love & Murder. Direct from New York, where a most gentlemanly NPR critic said he’d “Never laughed so hard at a Broadway musical,” Gentleman’s Guide tells the uproarious story of Monty Navarro, a distant heir to a family fortune who sets out to jump the line of succession by – you guessed it – eliminating the eight pesky relatives ¬all played by one fearless man® who stand in his way. All the while, Monty has to juggle his mistress ¬she’s after more than just love®, his fiancée ¬she’s his cousin but who’s keeping track?), and the constant threat of landing behind bars. Of course, it will all be worth it if he can slay his way to his inheritance . . . and be done in time for tea. Critics across the country are raving about Gentleman’s Guide, hailed as “one of the best new Broadway musicals in years” by Time Out Chicago. The New York Times raved “Gentleman’s Guide will lift the hearts of all those who’ve been pining for what sometimes seems a lost art form.” The San Francisco Chronicle applauded Gentleman’s Guide as “one delight after another,” and the Hollywood Reporter enthused Gentleman’s Guide “restores our faith in musical comedy!” Tickets for A Gentleman’s Guide to Love & Murder are on sale now at TPAC.ORG/Gentlemans, b y p h o n e a t 615-782-4040, and at the TPAC Box Office in downtown Nashville.

Title Sponsor TPAC Gala 2016 for the THIRD YEAR in a row.

“TPAC Gala is a festive celebration of arts education and a lively party geared to giving guests a great time. This year, we had a lot of fun welcoming our friends and community partners to the Renaissance time period and the high-spirited comedy of SOMETHING ROTTEN! While we had a lot of fun, we also recognized the important contributions of our honorees, Aubrey Harwell and Regions Bank. In different ways, both have advanced the arts and made them more accessible on the local, state, and national levels.”

– Kathleen O’Brien, TPAC president and chief executive officer

Harwell was honored for his years of service and leadership during 15 years on the TPAC Board of Directors, which include three years as board chair. Regions, the title sponsor of TPAC’s Humanities Outreach in Tennessee ‘Season for Young People’, is a long-time Chris Claybrook accepts the Applause Award on behalf of Regions Bank and steadfast partner. from TPAC President and Chief Executive Officer Kathleen O’Brien

TPAC Gala provides the critical funding for the organization’s rich education programs. TPAC Education delivers interactive, impactful experiences in the arts that propel learning, creative thinking, problem-solving, and confidence that children need for success in school and adulthood. In addition to supporting the educational, cultural, and outreach programs of TPAC Education, the event marked the beginning of TPAC’s 2016-17 Broadway season. The theme for the festive event, co-chaired by Julie Allen and Tracy Kane, was inspired by the hilarious Sponsor Jack Bovender and TPAC Board member Barbara Bovender valentine to musical theatre, Something Rotten! (RottenBroadway.com), which closes the season June 27 – July 2, 2017.

Set in 1595 England, this original musical tells the story of two brothers desperate to write a hit play who are stuck in the shadow of that Renaissance rock star, Will Shakespeare. The Tony Award-nominated score was co-written by Karey Kirkpatrick and his brother Wayne, a Nashville-based songwriter, singer, and producer who won a Grammy Award for “Change the World.” Matt and Benjamin Smith-Metz, Melanie Parker, and Phillip Powers Jr.

Working with the co-chairs to plan the event were Amy McDaniel and Milton White (silent auction); Jason Bradshaw, Phillipe Chadwick, and Bob Deal, (floral and design); Julie Boehm, (reservations); and Denice Hicks, artistic director for the Nashville Shakespeare Festival, as our Shakespearean advisor.

Additional sponsors are Barbara and Jack Bovender, Vanderbilt University, Corrections Corporation of America (CCA), Adams and Reese, BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee, Dollar General, Earl Swensson Performers Patrick Waller and Matt Garner | Photo by Mimosa Arts Associates (ESa), HCA, Inc., Medhost, and Nissan North America.
