FT Live: Deborah Allen
2021-06-05 20:00 | The Franklin Theatre, 419 Main Street, Franklin, 37064, United States
Deborah Allen is one of those rare artists who forged their own path to success and ended up building a world-class career in the process. She has given country music and her loyal fans forty years of music and memories that will span a lifetime. Deborah is an extraordinarily talented singer, songwriter, producer and performer. Her songs have been recorded by LeAnn Rimes, Brooks & Dunn, Patty Loveless, Conway Twitty, Loretta Lynn, Tanya Tucker, George Jones, Janie Fricke, John Conlee, Lori Morgan, Vern Gosdin, Joe Nichols, Isaac Hayes, Millie Jackson, Diana Ross, Sheena Easton, Fleetwood Mac and many more.
As an artist, Deborah has charted 14 singles in the Billboard Hot Country Charts and released 13 albums. Her hits include “I’ve Been Wrong Before,” “Heartache And A Half,” “I Hurt For You,” “Rock Me,” “If Your Not Gonna Love Me” and “Baby I Lied.” In some ways, “Baby I Lied” confirmed the idea that an artist could have success in different formats with the same song – a precedent that would prove to be years ahead of the crossover trends of today. “Baby I Lied” appealed to Country and Pop radio listeners, earning multiple BMI Million Air-Play Awards in the process and it also resulted in a pair of Grammy nominations for the Delta songstress – one as a vocalist and one as a songwriter. Deborah Allen has recorded duets with Jim Reeves, George Jones and is the only country artist to be produced by legendary pop/rock icon, Prince. This year marks Allen’s 40th Anniversary in country music and on June 5th, 2019 Deborah was honored with an Official Proclamation from Tennessee State Governor Bill Lee, announcing June 5th as a Day of Recognition to honor her artistry and career achievements.
Deborah is currently in the studio completing her new album, soon to be released on Audium-Nashville-BFD records.

Part of the Family Spotlight Series
The phrase “Nothing Less Than Brilliant” (Performance Magazine) has been used to describe the outrageous comedy antics and expertly crafted juggling feats of Mark Nizer.
Mark Nizer is one of the greatest entertainment comedians and jugglers performing today. His wild exploits have landed him on MTV, HBO’s Just for Laughs, Arsenio Hall, Bob Hope and Other Young Comedians, Comic Strip Live and LA Law. He has opened for Jerry Seinfeld, Bob Hope, George Burns, John Byner, Gladys Knight, The Temptations, Johnny Mathis, Ray Charles, and Barry Manilow. The late Bob Hope said, “He just keeps getting better and I didn’t think that was possible.”
Making the impossible possible and the improbable probable, Mark Nizer has taken his one-man show to a variety of venues around the world, including The Improv, The Comedy Store, Walt Disney World, numerous college campuses, and all major cruise lines. He has also performed in thousands of opera houses, civic centers, festivals and performing arts centers including the Kennedy Center and Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts (three times). Entertainment Magazine states, “Without a doubt the hottest juggler on the entertainment market, Mark Nizer is simply incredible.”
Don’t miss the combination of original comedy, world class juggling, movement, music and technology that promises a spellbinding evening. Whether juggling laser beams at 1000 rpms, or five ping pong balls being thrown 20 feet in the air using only his mouth; or even juggling a burning propane tank, a running electric carving knife and a 16-pound bowling ball, you’ll discover for yourself that Mark Nizer is truly “the juggler your mother warned you about.” Or if she didn’t, she should have.
