Ease on down the road... straight to @orpheummemphis! You’ve only got a few more chances to catch @thewizbway before it dances out of town!

Back on tour for the first time in 40 years, this all-Black Broadway revival brings ballet, jazz, funk, and soul to the stage in a show-stopping celebration of movement, music, and culture. With choreography by JaQuel Knight (you know him from Beyoncé’s Single Ladies 👑), it’s a vibrant reminder of how dance continues to move and inspire us right here in Memphis.

Don’t miss your chance to experience this unforgettable production before it eases on out of town! 💫

Did you catch this story during #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth? 💙

We’re proud to see a University of Memphis program making it to the national spotlight—thanks to none other than @SimoneBiles. 🐾✨

Meet Simone the Therapy Dog, named after the GOAT herself, who brings joy, comfort, and emotional support to students at University Middle School. What started as a rescue story is now a powerful example of healing, love, and mental health advocacy right here in Memphis.

Shoutout to Simone and her human, Dr. Sally, for reminding us how impactful compassion can be—one student, one tail wag at a time. #TheyFuelUs #MentalHealthMatters #WeAreMemphis

🕊️ @clayborn_temple is more than bricks and stained glass—it’s the soul of Memphis history.

On April 28, a fire damaged the beloved Historic Clayborn Temple, a sacred site of resilience and remembrance. While the flames may have touched its walls, the spirit of Clayborn lives on in us—in every voice that still says I AM A MAN, in every step we take together toward justice, unity, and love.

We are standing in full support with Anasa Troutman, @thebigwe, and the entire Clayborn Temple family - grieving, remembering, and holding space for what rises from the ashes. This is not the end, but a powerful call to remember who we are and to reimagine what’s next—together.

Join us Tuesday, May 28 from 4:30–6:30 PM at Clayborn Temple for “Remember & Reimagine”, a community gathering to honor Clayborn’s legacy, mourn our loss, and dream forward.

💐 Bring your flowers, your love notes, your presence.

📍 294 Hernando Street, Memphis, TN
📝 RSVP at Clayborn.org
💛 Support the restoration by donating if you can

We grieve. We remember. We rebuild—with faith, courage, and abundant love. In true Memphis fashion.
