Nashville’s Best Actor and Best Actress

Team Up In JOHN & JEN

Patrick Waller and Martha Wilkinson, voted Best Actor and Actress by Nashville Scene’s Best of 2009 are pairing up their talents in the Andrew Lippa musical, john & jen. This truly original musical takes a look at the complexities of relationships between brothers and sisters and parents and children. Set against the background of a changing America between 1950 and 1990, john & jen is a gem of a show brimming with intelligence, wit and beautiful melodies.

This is the story of Jen and her relationships with the two Johns of her life: her younger brother, who was killed in Vietnam, and his namesake, her son who is trying to find his way in a confusing world. With a cast of only two people, john & jen is a tour-de-force for two actors who take Jen and John (both of them) from childhood, through adolescence and beyond. A chamber musical, beautifully scored for piano and cello, john & jen is a musical about connections, commitments and the healing of the human heart.
