Artist-in-Residence Speaker Series: Wayne Kirkpatrick

Join us one night a month as our Artist-In-Residence host some of the biggest names in entertainment and the arts. Think of it as “Ted Talk” meets “Inside the Actors Studio.” Each artist will share their heartfelt stories and incredible journeys as well as talk about the state of their industry during a Q&A with one of our Artist-in-Residence. It is a night that is sure to inspire you!

Lipscomb’s College of Entertain and the Arts presents Wayne Kirkpatrick, co-creator of Broadway hit Something Rotten and Grammy Award winning songwriter, for the Artist-in-Residence Speaker Series in December. The Artist-in-Residence Speaker Series highlights each artist’s impact on their industry as well as the Lipscomb community during a Q&A session.

He tops off his career as a co-creator of the Broadway hit, Something Rotten, a show he created with his brother, Karey Kirkpatrick.
