Following a critically acclaimed sell-out run at The Edinburgh Fringe Festival, The Carole King & James Taylor Story takes you on an incredible journey through the career of the six-time Grammy Award winner and twenty-time platinum hit maker Carole King and five-time Grammy Award winner & folk legend James Taylor.
This new “show-umentary” format gives a fascinating insight into the lives behind the music. Featuring passionate renditions of Fire and Rain, Sweet Baby James, I Feel the Earth Move, Natural Woman, You’ve Got a Friend, and many more, this astonishing back catalogue is realized with authenticity by Phoebe Katis and Dan Clews, both well-established artists in their own right.

The Wortham Center is Asheville’s go-to hub for seriously good performing arts — a cozy multi-venue setup where you can catch everything from sharp theatre pieces and dance shows to live music and comedy. It features a classic 500-seat main theater that’s perfect for both nationally touring acts and local productions, along with smaller black box and studio spaces for experimental performances and workshops.

 The center’s vibe is intimate and welcoming, making you feel like you’re part of the show rather than just a spectator. Plus, it’s right in the mix downtown with easy access to great restaurants and after-show hangouts.

For locals, Wortham isn’t just a theater — it’s a beloved gathering spot to experience the arts in all their forms. Fans rave about the consistently professional productions, the stunning restored seats from Radio City Music Hall, and community-focused programs that bring art education and performance opportunities to all ages. 

The addition of smaller venues expanded the kind of performances you can see, from indie plays to dance workshops, making it a hotspot for creative energy year-round. Regulars highlight the friendly staff and refreshingly chill vibe for something so fancy.
