Music City Theatre Company announces THE NORMAL HEART

The Normal Heart is a searing drama about the public & private indifference to the AIDS plague in New York City between 1981 & 1984, and one man's lonely fight to awaken the world to the crisis. Produced to acclaim in New York, London and Los Angeles, The Normal Heart follows Ned Weeks, a writer & founder of a prominent HIV advocacy group, who is enraged at the indifference of public officials & the gay community towards the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Ned prefers loud public confrontations to the calmer, more private strategies favored by his associates, friends, and closeted lover Felix Turner. People continue to get sick & die around him as Ned fights relentlessly to get his voice heard over loud opposition.

The Normal Heart originally premiered Off-Broadway in 1985 & made its Broadway debut in April of 2011 where it won three Tony Awards – Best Revival of a Play, Best Featured Actor In a Play – John Benjamin Hickey, & Best Featured Actress in a Play – Ellen Barkin.

Music City Theatre Company's cast includes Matt Smith as Ned, Memory Strong as Emma, Daniel DeVault as Felix, Chuck Long as Mickey, Daniel Vincent as Bruce, Doug Allen as Ben, Daniel Morgan as Tommy, Chris Malone as Craig/Grady, Brian Sullivan as David/Doctor, & Fernando Ochoa as Hiram.

The Normal Heart is the tenth production of Music City Theatre Company. Bradley Moore founded the theatre company in 2008. Its mission is to provide the Nashville community with thought-provoking, socially relevant work with a strong vision.

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.

Nurse Practitioner Ari Kravitz

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.
