Today, our focus is on one of our favorites: Stephanie Jones-Benton, one of Nashville's favorite musical theater stars, a Nashville native and a graduate of Belmont University's musical theater program. The past couple of years have been jam-packed with fun, excitement and work for Stephanie, with a lot of miles on her own personal odometer as she's traversed the world's seas and flown its skies, performing for audiences in virtually every corner of the globe.

Celebrating its 65th season, Nashville's Circle Players is Middle Tennessee's oldest community theater organization and I can think of no better way to celebrate that milestone than with the company's current show, the Tim Larson-directed version of Ragtime, the musical adaptation of the acclaimed E.L. Doctorow novel.
