Clips from the upcoming documentary Basketball & Brotherhood: Breaking Barriers, produced by Jessica Loving, Luke Whitehead, and well-known Louisville filmmaker Fred Reynolds, will be interwoven throughout the special evening. *Presenters are scheduled to appear.
In addition to the public event at The Kentucky Center, Kentucky to the World will hold a special student program. This more intimate "Student Briefing" provides an opportunity for middle school through university-age students to have interactive encounters with our distinguished guests. It focuses on the concerns and questions of contemporary youth.
THE PROGRAM

DIVE DEEP WITH CHRIS FISCHER & KTW ON KET
KTW’s first live program post-Covid, Diving Deep: Chris Fischer’s Journey to Save Sharks and Bring Balance to Our Oceans, recently made its TV debut on Kentucky Educational Television (KET).
KTW invites viewers to dive deep alongside Louisville native Chris Fischer, OCEARCH Founder and Expedition Leader, during the airings on KET as well as the streaming of the program from May 16, 2022.
It features Chris Fischer having a discussion with Kentuckian Peter Schikler, Senior Associate at Frost Brown Todd in Louisville, about his global adventures at
sea to find the solutions that will ensure a sea full of fish for generations to come.
The recordings of KTW’s live programs are broadcast across 16 stations and available to stream anytime on their website at ket.org/program/kentucky-to-the-world/.
KTW EXAMINES THE STATE OF THE SONG
On October 23, 2022 , KTW held their most ambitious program yet, The State of Song, with four musical and conversational hosts including Harry Pickens, Hannah Drake, Ben Sollee, and Emily Bingham.
As part of our Republic Bank Foundation Speaker Series, their program examined the role of Kentucky’s state song, “My Old Kentucky Home,” through live music, deep historical exploration, and spoken word poetry combined with engaging conversations and robust student participation.
The multimedia experience integrated local youth throughout the main show as the evening kicked off with a traditional West African drum welcome performed by The Louisville Leopard Percussionists in collaboration with DrumCorp LLC.
As music was referenced by Emily Bingham and Hannah Drake during discussions, Harry Pickens and Ben Sollee provided pieces to deepen the audience’s understanding of the references during improvised musical interactions of “My Old Kentucky Home” throughout the program.
The program culminated in a powerful spoken word piece crafted by poet Hannah Drake that moved many in the audience to tears from her use of words provided by local students and community members based on their authentic feelings towards Kentucky and its state song.
A U D I E N C E 10
Chris Fischer
KTW is working with Hannah to record her spoken word piece from the program at LaLaLand recording studio in Louisville, along with developing a music video to debut the piece set to music from Harry and Ben, and extend the conversation about Kentucky’s state song nationally.
The full program will debut on KET later this year which will include powerful responses KTW has received from audience members on the impact the program had on them.
KTW EXPANDS INTO BOWLING GREEN
In 2022, KTW expanded its presence to Bowling Green after being recruited as one of the exclusive tenants inside the new Collaborative SmartSpace at Western Kentucky University’s (WKU) Innovation
Campus. KTW is joining partners such as the MIT Documentary Lab, The USC Civic Imagination Project, the Central Region and Innovation Commercialization Center (CREATE) and others.
The new satellite space gives KTW the unique opportunity to work with more collaborators to reach broader audiences and showcase the vibrance of Bowling Green and Kentucky’s community, economy, and workforce to inspire rising entrepreneurs, especially students.
KTW’s Board of Directors will meet at the WKU Innovation Campus this summer to determine the next phase of KTW’s efforts across the region including collaboration with AccelerateKY, The USC Civic Imagination Project, and WKU to develop a new civic imagination and storytelling conference this fall in Bowling Green.
A U D I E N C E 11
To further their storytelling efforts across the region, KTW is also partnering with Sam Kirby, Owner and Founder of Vid Monster, to produce a new video series, “Hill to River,” showcasing the inspirational stories of Bowling Greenbased businesses, budding entrepreneurs, and some of Kentucky’s top innovators.
KTW will work alongside Vid Monster in collaboration with CREATE as well as Board Members Tommy Johns, KTW’s Director of Strategic Planning and Documentary Film, and Sam Ford, Executive Director of AccelerateKY and a fellow of CREATE, to produce the series debuting later this year.
Stay tuned and learn about other exciting projects in 2023.

RAIN: A TRIBUTE TO THE BEATLES
Tuesday, April 18, 2023 | 7:30PM | The Brown Theatre
RAIN COMES TOGETHER…..
Feb. 9, 1964. A Sunday night that would change the course of popular music, popular culture - and history, forever! Millions of Americans tuned into The Ed Sullivan Show to watch a group of four mop-topped Englishmen in dark suits who called themselves The Beatles.
What they witnessed was a new and exciting brand of melodic, guitar-andharmonies-driven rock 'n' roll that was as infectious as it was original and unique. Little did the members of RAIN know that they would themselves come together in a band, forging a career that would keep them together longer than The Beatles! All this while raising the bar
A U D I E N C E 16
for professionalism and preserving the legacy of the immortal band's recorded music on stage to wildly enthusiastic audiences. Spanning the generations, their audiences include the vast majority of older fans who never got to see The Beatles perform live, and fans who were not yet born when The Beatles hit America.
The story of RAIN actually begins in the mid-1970s when keyboardist Mark Lewis joined forces with four other local musicians who together formed the band that was originally called “Reign” and played throughout the Los Angeles/ Orange County, CA area. With their mutual love for the music of The Beatles, Reign was in demand to play Beatles music and rode an enormous wave of nostalgia for the band that had broken up in 1970. Before long they had built a strong devoted following in and around Los Angeles.
Following numerous misspellings in the media and advertising, “Reign” became RAIN (also the title of a 1966 Beatles single). A big break came for RAIN when Dick Clark hired them to record the music for the 1979 made-for-TV movie
Birth of the Beatles.
RAIN’s intention was not just to cover Beatle songs, but to take it to a new level. To do songs that The Beatles had never performed live, and do them notefor-note, just like the records. At this time, ‘tribute bands’ were non-existent.
Since the 1980s, the music is first and foremost. For more than two decades, RAIN has distinguished itself by focusing on details, always being faithful to The Beatles with the ultimate goal of delivering a perfect note-for-note performance. All the music is performed live, with no pre-recorded tapes or sequences. They approach The Beatles music with the same respect a classical musician treats classical music. They worked hard for many years, studying each song, each note, movement and nuance…both vocally and musically.
Today, they have a repertoire of over 200 Beatle songs. The members of RAIN are extraordinarily talented musicians in their own right and this becomes more evident with each show they do. RAIN audiences experience their own personal journey back to a time when Peace and Love was everyone’s mantra. It’s difficult to believe that it has been more than four decades since The Beatles first came to America and that two of our beloved idols left us too soon. Equally hard to believe is the fact that this band whose music touched so many millions of people around the world was only experienced live in concert by very few.
Their final concert tour was in 1966, long before the release of many of their classic albums such as “Sgt. Pepper,” “The White Album” and “Abbey Road.” This left a tremendous void in the music world and concert halls which now has been filled by RAIN. − Merle Frimark
