Inebriated Shakespeare expands to season two

Inebriated Shakespeare, the coolest stage show playing at a bar or venue near you, is back for another frolic through the firewater. But this time, it is literally double the fun!

The acting troupe will debut their second season on New Years Eve at the Music Valley Event Center at 9 PM, Central. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased by calling 615-902-9566. You can also go to www.missjeannes.com.

Because of demand, Inebriated Shakespeare, a Wild Card Productions show, has two casts to better serve the various bars, clubs and stages across Middle Tennessee. They will be returning with the Bard’s classic comedy “Much Ado About Nothing.”

Armed with a new director and a few veterans from the first season, the company’s Founder and President, Angela Gimlin, says she is more than thrilled with the barrage of talent she sees at every rehearsal.

“My stomach literally hurts from laughing throughout rehearsal,” Gimlin says with a smile. “We have gathered fourteen of the most talented comedic actors in Nashville and cannot wait to unleash them on the world.”

The concept of Inebriated Shakespeare is simple. Ten minutes before show time, two of the seven actors in the cast take a few shots and, well, the show must go on. Much Ado About Nothing will play to venues around Nashville including the Music Valley Event Center, Wylee’s and Third Coast Comedy Club.

Inebriated Shakespeare’s show director is Kathryn Sutton. Cast A is Jarvis Bynum as Benedick, Cat Glidewell as Beatrice, James Brooks as Claudio, Gimlin as Hero, James Bealor as Don Pedro, Daniel Morgan as Don John and Evan Grabenstein as Leonato. Cast B includes Tobias J. Turner as Benedick, Hillary Mead as Beatrice, Austin Jeffrey Smith as Claudio, Brittany Juilfs as Hero, Zach Parker as Don Pedro, Sutton as Donna Johnna, and Asa Ambrister as Leonato. The New Years Eve show includes actors from both casts.

WhistlePig + Alfa Romeo F1

SHOREHAM, VT (September 13, 2023) — WhistlePig Whiskey, the leaders in independent craft whiskey, and Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake are waving the checkered flag on a legend-worthy release that’s taking whiskey to G-Force levels. The Limited Edition PiggyBack Legends Series: Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake Barrel is a high Rye Whiskey selected by the Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake drivers, with barrels trialed in their wind tunnel to ensure a thrilling taste in every sip.

The third iteration in WhistlePig’s Single Barrel PiggyBack Legends Series, the Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake Barrel is bottled at 96.77 proof, a nod to Valtteri Bottas’ racing number, 77, and the precision of racing. Inspired by Zhou Guanyu, the first Chinese F1 driver, this Rye Whiskey is finished with lychee and oolong tea. Herbal and floral notes of the oolong tea complement the herbaceous notes of WhistlePig’s signature PiggyBack 100% Rye, rounded out with a juicy tropical fruit finish and a touch of spice.

When I started medical transition at 20 years old, it was very difficult to get the care I needed for hormone replacement therapy because there are very few providers trained in starting hormones for trans people, even though it’s very similar to the hormones that we prescribe to women in menopause or cisgender men with low testosterone.

I hope more providers get trained in LGBTQ+ healthcare, so they can support patients along their individual gender journey, and provide the info needed to make informed decisions about their body. I’ve personally seen my trans patients find hope and experience a better quality of life through hormone replacement therapy.
