Letter from the Publishers
As we begin our 18th year with the Performing Arts in Nashville, we are
excited to be a part of one of the most robust Arts communities in the
country. In fact, Nashville ranks in the top 12 cities in the country for
culture, arts and entertainment, while Business Week named Nashville
one of the best places for artists to live in the United States. Therein lies
why Nashville is the home of the most talented artists in the country.
When you couple that with Nashville being ranked as the eighth
strongest economy in the country, we find ourselves living in a very
enviable community.
The “Playbill” you hold in your hand is the visual voice of the arts,
communicating the importance of the arts to the Nashville community.
One of our favorite quotes regarding the arts is from Kathleen O’Brien,
“We need the arts. They are not a luxury. They make us better people,
and they are at the core of strong, vibrant communities”. How true.
We thank our readers for being such an important part of the arts, and
making Nashville such a strong, vibrant community!
Enjoy the show!

Welcome to the Tennessee Performing
Arts Center. We hope you enjoy your
experience here with your family, friends,
and familiar characters from television,
film, and Broadway theatre.
We hope you connect with the artists on the stage
and the people in the seats surrounding you.
I’m curious. How do you usually connect with other
people these days? Are you more likely to send an
e-mail or text message than to talk on the phone?
Are you on Facebook?
What gives you a sense of community? Do you
“travel in circles” with people from your neighborhood,
school, place of worship, work-world, sports activities,
or civic, social, and business organizations? How
often to you come to TPAC with family and friends, or
spend time with them at movies, restaurants, athletic
events, museums, parks, and other activities?
We’ve thought a lot about all of this as we review the
past year and look forward to the next. “Connections,”
in fact, has become a theme of our 2010-11 Report
to the Community, which I hope you will check out at
tpac.org/annualreport.
One thing we know: In this electronic, computer age,
the live performance is more meaningful than ever.
A great evening or afternoon at the theatre is filled with
electrifying energy, laughter, and surprises. People
become touched or changed in some way, and they
can have interesting conversations after the show.
On the other hand, TPAC’s social media enhances
your experience with performances and your ways of
interacting with our shared community. Join the fun
on Facebook and TPAC’s YouTube Channel. Follow
the links on our web site for more information on our
for
productions. Respond to the surveys we send after
each show. Give us a call at 615-782-4000 or send
us an e-mail to patronservices@tpac.org. Simply put,
reconnect with us!
As our ways of connecting to each other continue to
change, I sincerely hope that TPAC will be a source of
meaningful and interactive social experiences for you.
Kathleen W. O'Brien
TPAC PresidenT And Chief exeCuTive OffiCer
When you power-on
your electronic devices
after the performance,
it’s the perfect time
to call, e-mail, text,

What’s Coming to Nashville Next Season?
putting together the pieces of a puzzle
Building every season of HCA/TriStar Broadway
at TPAC is a complex process that begins with
the names of the shows on tour.
From one year to the next we never really know what will be
happening in New York or on the road. It really is like putting
together the pieces of a puzzle.
TPAC’s first goal is to offer local audiences a balance of new
titles, classics, and family shows while also showcasing the
breadth of what great, live theater provides: lavish sets, athletic
choreography, lush music, powerful drama, and clever humor.
We want high-quality productions that will engage, entertain,
and inspire our patrons.
Then, the long negotiations begin, based on available weeks in
Andrew Jackson Hall and times when tours can route to Nashville.
TPAC is now in the height of serious discussions, talking to agents and
producers about their shows so we can announce the exciting news in
April at a special event for season ticket-buyers, group leaders, and donors.
“Every year at this time, months before we announce the next
season, TPAC is fighting to land the best Broadway shows on
behalf of our community. We compete against cities like Charlotte,
Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Phoenix and others across the nation in
order to bring the best to Nashville,” said Steve Citerin, TPAC’s
Vice President of Marketing, Sponsorships, and Strategies.
“Many factors determine why a tour chooses a city, but the
absolute strongest factor is a large and supportive subscription
base. The more people who buy season tickets for HCA/TriStar
Broadway at TPAC, the sooner we’ll get the top titles on tour,
including the hot tickets in New York, the big winners at the Tony
Awards, and the blockbusters like Wicked and The Lion King.”
So, when it comes to TPAC’s Broadway series, bigger
truly is better.
Enjoy exclusive savings and benefits with a ticket package
for the exciting shows coming to TPAC this winter and spring!

WHO’S WHO in the CAST
BIN
FAAARKREKKION
(Writer).
Faarkrekkion’s career typifies the Finnish economic miracle. Born the son of a humble
woodcutter, Bin worked his way up through
shrubbery management to become Professor
of Treadmill Dynamics at the University of
Toooti, believed to be the 28th most northerly
university in the world. “I have always been
interested in the relatively rapid transition
from a predominantly rural agricultural base
to one of the most advanced industrial
economies in the Western world, and one day
in the sauna, it came to me: What a great subject for a musical.”
RUUDI KOKKI (Producer). Like Bin
Faaarkrekkion, Kokki’s life has had its twists
and turns. He learnt his trade up country
where he was, for a time, the 28th most
northerly person in Finland. “My father was a
humble woodcutter. But at these latitudes,
where it is dark for half the year, this was a
very dangerous business, as it was not always
possible to see where the trees are falling—
and one year my father brought down a huge
spruce on top of his friend Nee-Wom, partly
killing him.” Kokki’s father would never
touch a tree again. He would hang about the
cabin nursing his grief, rocking backwards
and forwards and listening to the hated
Swedish group Abba. “My loathing of Abba,
and their enormous earnings, led me to my
first musical venture, the formation of an alternative Finnish group: Udda. Two boys,
two girls and, my master-stroke, one hermaphrodite, Ken-Angela Nuuti.” Udda’s
problems are now well known. Shiiti refused
3
PLAYBILL
to share a towel with Noggi, Bonk complained that Tuulivaarskinonen’s name was
bigger on the door and Ken-Angela turned
out to be Norwegian. Kokki changed his
name to Art Polaris and wrote Do
Skleeezwiaanaenblon, an erotic opera set
amongst the winkle pickers on Finland’s
Baltic Sea coast. The show closed after only
eight minutes. The sight of 94 aroused winkles was too much even for Helsinki’s liberal
Ghooti
Sponen
newspaper.
“Do
Skleeezwiaaanaenblon gives Finnish erotic
opera a bad name. I’ve seen more erotic activity at a builder’s yard.” Undaunted, Kokki
set to work on an erotic opera set in a
builder’s yard. Di Hoviekrekkertilllniamen,
the story of a young female crane operator
who pleasures herself during preliminary
works connected with the extension of
Helsinki’s Metro system, was an instant hit.
“I discovered, for the first time, how many
people were interested in the extension of the
Metro system, and in the burgeoning Finnish
economy generally.” Kokki set himself a new
task, to represent this extraordinary economic
transformation in music, dance, mime and
magic. One night he was explaining his plans
at the exclusive Sons of Humble Woodcutter’s Club in the chic Kongspalatzen, when a
fellow diner pricked up his hears. His name
was Bin Faaarkrekkion. The rest is history.
DILLI AARNEN. Dilli, 43, began her career
understudying Speeni Solkomen in The Keith
Richard Story. She’s married to producer
Mooni Moorikikinen but is having an affair
WHO’S WHO in the CAST
with Ost Fwellok and Stubbi Bwenolllenson.
She has won four Golden Nukkies.
SWELL PEST. Swell is best known for his
portrayal of Gossi Tweshonen, the unsighted
bus driver in FinnTV’s hit series “Aaarghh!
Villianomeniaanen Schiederrbobrana Ig”
(“Watch Out!”). He lives in the woods many
miles north of Helsinki in a house modelled
on Steve Earle’s early hit “Guitar Town.”
SAD AAARSE. As well as being Finland’s
open unicycle champion, Sadd is a keen environmentalist, who believes that man has much
to learn from the moose. “We think we have
all the answers, but we don’t. If we did we’d
have horns.” He has twice won the Shapeless
Gray Thing of Tampere.
THE HONNI OBIKKIONEN SINGERS.
Twelve boys, seven girls and an ostrich who
all met up at Utsjoki Cold Research Institute
in the extreme north of Finland. “There was
not much to do in the evenings but sneeze,”
laughs Honni, now 57, “so we used to cheer
everyone up with a few Leonard Cohen songs.
They went down so well that we now do Tom
Waits, Tibetan songs for the dead and Petula
Clark.” A little-known fact about the Honni
Obikkionen Singers is that they once had two
ostriches in the team.
STONG VATTIAAANIKKERA (Moose
Trainer). Stong, twice winner of the most
westerly man in Finland, grew up with moose.
“Very often I would go down to breakfast and
find moose in the kitchen, in the car and
sometimes listening to the radio, dressed up
to look like my mother and father.” During almost a decade of psychiatric treatment, Stong
took up ballet as a way of dealing with what
he called “bad thoughts.” The treatment
worked, and Stong took, and on the third time
passed, accountancy exams. He returned to
the community and rose to become CEO and
lifetime president of the Finnish Steel Corporation. What few people knew was that in the
evening Stong was combining the two “loves
of my life”: moose and ballet. Without anyone
knowing, he hired a theatre and put on his
very own creation, Moose Lake. As a result he
was re-admitted to hospital where, despite
everyone’s best efforts, he wrote and scored
12 more moose ballets. Now 88 years old and
a trim 193 pounds, Stong believes his time has
come. “For years I was laughed at. I only
hope I will be again tonight.”
TANAKA ING (Director). The only nonFinn in the company, Ing has a long history
in experimental theatre, including
Churchill’s History of the English Speaking
People in mime, a salsa version of the Tibetan Book of the Dead and a puppet version
of The U.S. Population Census of 1973. A
great tennis lover, Ing went to Finland for a
contemplation weekend and found himself
hooked. “I love trees and always have, and in
Finland there are something like a thousand
trees for each person. I also like the bits in
between them, which allow you to walk
around the trees without hitting them. I hope I
can do my bit to make the world sing along
with the remarkable transformation from a
predominantly conservative rural base to one
of the most advanced industrial economies in
the Western world.” Ing’s next project is to
drain Lake Michigan for a day.
Patrons are asked not to smoke or speak Swedish in the
theatre. Please use cell phones whenever possible.

COME TO FINLAND
If you’ve enjoyed this production, why not
hop on a plane and see Finland for yourself?
It is such a lovely place. (Mostly flat but
with some raised bits.) Quite warm sometimes in the south, though on the whole colder in the north. There are some paper mills.
The roads have relatively few bumps. All hotels have curtains. Things are very clean, but
not pathologically so. It’s a great place for
trees. Alongside the trees you will find other
trees, which blend into a forest running for a
thousand miles. If you’ve never seen a forest
running, then Finland is the place for you.
And don’t believe anyone who says you
can’t get tomatoes there. Of course you can.

JACOB L. SMITH (Sir Galahad, Black Knight, Father) is
thrilled to be returning for his second year with Spamalot,
and looks forward to losing a few limbs this time around!
Originally from Cedar Falls, Iowa, Jake is a graduate of the
University of Northern Iowa and the American Musical and
Dramatic Academy (AMDA) in New York. Most recently, he
was seen in the National Tour of Monty Python’s Spamalot as
Sir Dennis Galahad and Concord, and was recently named one
of 2010’s Broadway Rising Stars. Other favorite roles include
Mike Mooney in Paint Your Wagon and Peter Boroff in Silk
Stockings. Much love to Ma’ and Pop, his “A-Team” and of
course, Big Guns upstairs.
KASIDY DEVLIN (Sir Robin) is a New York City based actor
who has been in a lot of shows (some you know, some you
probably don’t). Kasidy trained at: The Dell’ Arte International
School of Physical Theatre, and In Bocca al Lupo in Italy; and
more recently at HB Studios, and The Julliard School. This
performance is dedicated to my dad, John, who upon finding
out about this tour, debated retirement to catch every show.

helping heart failure patients
survive
Destination therapy – a treatment option only
available locally at saint thomas heart – gave
ruby howell a reason to sing again.
Ruby Howell
Nashville, TN
Heart Disease Survivor
A heart transplant wasn’t an option for Ruby. But destination therapy was.
Through the combined care of the cardiac specialists at Saint Thomas Heart
at Baptist Hospital and Saint Thomas Hospital, Ruby’s heart was given new
life by implanting a ventricular assist device (VAD) which helps the weakened
left ventricle pump blood throughout the body. Now Ruby’s improved strength
has allowed her to get back to what she loves most – singing in the choir at
Galilee Missionary Baptist Church. And isn’t that what surviving is all about?
Saint Thomas Heart provides the only Joint Commission certified destination
therapy program in the region. Learn more at MoreSurvivors.com

SOUTH PACIFIC
TPAC’s Jackson Hall
February 7-12
The breathtaking new production of
South Pacific is based on the 2008 Tony
Award-winning Lincoln Center Theater production,
directed by Bartlett Sher.
Set in an island paradise during World War II, two parallel
love stories are threatened by the dangers of prejudice
and war. Nellie, a spunky nurse from Arkansas, falls in
love with a mature French planter, Emile. She learns
that the mother of his children was an island native and,
unable to turn her back on the prejudices with which
she was raised, refuses Emile’s proposal of marriage.
Meanwhile, the strapping Lt. Joe Cable denies himself
the fulfillment of a future with an innocent Tonkinese girl
with whom he’s fallen in love out of the same fears that
haunt Nellie. When Emile is recruited to accompany Joe
on a dangerous mission, prejudices are confronted.
The beloved score’s songs include “Some Enchanted
Evening,” “I’m Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair,”
“This Nearly Was Mine,” and “There is Nothin’ Like a Dame.”
For more information, pick up a Center Stage magazine in
the lobby or visit tpac.org/southpacific.

It was 1960 all over again when
“Hairspray,” an eight-time, Tony Award
winning musical, hit the Lipscomb
stage with a whirl of hairdos and
heartthrobs. It’s just another example
of Lipscomb’s commitment to the
arts in Nashville. The chair of our
theatre department was named one of
Nashville’s top ten directors for 2010,
and our partnership in staging Blackbird
Theater’s production of “Twilight of
the Gods” resulted in a “best new play”
recognition. And that’s just part of the
story. Experience it for yourself—there
are hundreds of arts performances
on campus annually that are open
to the public for little or no charge.
Go to events.lipscomb.edu. There’s
lots to see and hear at Lipscomb.
We’re not teasing.
One of our recent
performances took
a lot of teasing.
