    TPAC Education provides the perfect pre-show treat to whet your appetite before a performance. Arrive early to enhance your theater experience with a menu of fun facts, delectable discussions, and, yes, appetizers.

    Turn up that dial... From the underground dance clubs of 1950s Memphis, Tennessee, comes a hot new Broadway musical that bursts off the stage with explosive dancing, irresistible songs and a thrilling tale of fame and forbidden love. Inspired by actual events, Memphis is about a white radio DJ who wants to change the world and a black club singer who is ready for her big break. Come along on their incredible journey to the ends of the airwaves -- filled with laughter, soaring emotions and roof-raising rock 'n' roll. Winner of four 2010 Tony Awards including Best Musical, Memphis, which played pre-Broadway at the La Jolla Playhouse, features a Tony-winning book by Joe DiPietro (I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change) and a Tony-winning original score with music by Bon Jovi founding member David Bryan. Directing is Tony nominee Christopher Ashley (Xanadu), and choreography is by Sergio Trujillo (Jersey Boys).

    *IMPORTANT NOTE: You will not receive tickets when you reserve your seat for the Arts Appetizer. Instead, your name will be placed on an RSVP list and you will check in on the evening of the event.
