Tobin Entertainment announces a one-night only engagement with political leader, voting rights activist, entrepreneur and New York Times bestselling author, Stacey Abrams, at TPAC’s Jackson Hall on Tuesday, Nov. 16.
The Nashville presentation of A Conversation with Stacey Abrams will be moderated by Country music superstar, actress, author and television personality Trisha Yearwood.
Tickets for A Conversation with Stacey Abrams are available now at TPAC.org, by phone at 615-782-4040 and at the TPAC Box Office, 505 Deaderick St., in downtown Nashville.
Join Abrams for an evening of candid conversation and insights on politics, leadership, entrepreneurship, social justice and being a true voice for change. Designed around worldwide and national events, as well as questions from the audience and community, this conversation with Abrams will inform and empower.
Abrams’ New York Times bestselling book “Lead from the Outside: How to Build Your Future and Make Real Change,” is a personal and empowering blueprint for outsiders who seek to become the ones in charge. From her experiences launching a company to building Georgia into a premier battleground state, Abrams illuminates that finding what you want to fight for is as critical as knowing how to turn thought into action. Her book, “Our Time is Now,” is a blueprint to end voter suppression and chronicles a chilling account of how the right to vote and the principles of democracy have been and continue to be under attack.
Dedicated to civic engagement, Abrams has founded multiple organizations devoted to voting rights, training and hiring young people of color and tackling social issues at both the state and national levels. She is the 2021 recipient of the inaugural Social Justice Impact Award from the NAACP Image Awards.
About Trisha Yearwood:
Following three decades in the spotlight, numerous GRAMMY®, CMA® and ACM® Awards to her name, countless multi-platinum certifications, and millions of fans entertained, the same passion still motivates and moves Trisha Yearwood. The singer, actress, author, chef, personality and entrepreneur derives deep fulfillment from simply walking up to a microphone and pouring her heart out by way of a celebrated powerhouse voice. In 2019, she continued that tradition with her first solo full-length album since 2007, a collection of Frank Sinatra covers and one original entitled “Let’s Be Frank.” Later that year, Yearwood unveiled her highly anticipated new single, “Every Girl in This Town,” setting the stage for the 2019 release of her first full-length country album in more than a decade, “Every Girl,” and a nationwide tour. The first single achieved the highest debut and biggest add day of her career and amplified excitement for the album. Out now, the record upholds and extends her legacy for a new generation of fans.
