This week, Kentucky Edition has gone on the road to Bowling Green.

From Corvettes to caves.

We've spotlighted much of what the region has to offer.

We have more from south central Kentucky this evening as Laura Rogers takes us to a venue bringing Broadway to Bowling Green.

Jeff Reed is president and CEO of the Southern Kentucky Performing Arts Center, or Sky back, as it's best known.

Talk about how this has increased access to arts and culture, entertainment and educational opportunities for south central Kentucky.

Well, we have over 100 events here per year, and that's just here in the concert hall.

And you add educational opportunities and other things.

And it's a busy place.

So, you know, being in south central Kentucky, we're drawing from multi counties in the region.

Nashville is one of our largest attending areas because it's less hassle to get here and more intimate.

And we just installed state of the art sound and lighting here.

Our staff is doing a good job of reaching a lot of people in this region.

Absolutely.

And you have such a great variety of shows, from Broadway musicals to various country music and, and stars and pop music, all kinds of different genres, of course.

Orchestra, Kentucky, the beautiful music that you all bring here to sky back, that just really opens it up to so many different tastes and interests.

We really try to get a good variety.

You know, we don't hit it every year because there are a lot of likes in terms of the arts.

But we do have a resident theater company, the Ramsay Theater Company, which is headed by Diana Cross, who's a veteran of Broadway.

She was in Lamia.

She lives here and leads that.

You mentioned Orchestra Kentucky.

We have BG on stage, which is our youth theater.

So that whole thing and then we have, you know, country music, rock and roll plays, all kinds of things.

You name it, we've had it here.

Comedians.

Yes.

A lot of comedians and those shows I know do very well.

We all need a good laugh and those appeal to a lot of people.

And yes, the pedigree of the talent, the leadership that is leading Sky back.

And what is the vision for Sky pack you opened in 2012?

So several 13 years ago.

Going into the next decade, what do you hope to see happening?

Well, I want this place to be busier.

You know, we have 365 days in a year.

And, we want this place to be hoppin almost every one of them.

The staff needs some breaks, but the taxpayers built this.

It's it's here to serve them and our community.

We have an impact on tourism and the economic aspect of the community.

So we want to continue to feed into that and be part of that and serve it even better than we are now.

Jeff, again, thank you so much.

Jeffery, president and CEO of Southern Kentucky Performing Arts Center.

Artists appearing soon at Sky pack includes Sawyer Brown, The Avett Brothers, and Rick Springfield.
