BWW Review: Nashville Story Garden's Stunning IRONBOUND Closes All-Too-Brief Run Tonight
by Jeffrey Ellis - February 02, 2019
For Darya, a 42-year-old Polish emigre eking out a meager and bleak existence in New Jersey, life in America seems far less promising than she may have considered at the outset of her journey. But in Martyna Majok's exquisitely crafted and beautifully written play - Ironbound - which ends its all-too-brief Nashville run tonight, there is a glimmer (a very faint one, truth be told, but a glimmer nonetheless) of hope that may augur a brighter future ahead.

Patterson Hood To Perform At WHO KNEW What It Means Tomorrow
by BWW News Desk - January 22, 2019
If you've ever been to a WHO KNEW event, you know it will be well produced and thought provoking. This one is going to deliver on both counts big time. The centerpiece of the event is an incredibly eloquent song called 'What It Means', written by Patterson Hood of Drive-By Truckers. The song's lyrics go right to the heart of many social issues that are top of mind and top of the news these days - racial tension, equality, diversity, gun violence and all lives matter. We have assembled a panel of highly accomplished music industry executives and artists to come together and explore these topics in hopes of pointing out the things that unite us are stronger than those that divide us. And music is the common denominator of it all.
