VenuWorks Presents Tusk

Playing the hits and deep cuts spanning the career of Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame group Fleetwood Mac, Tusk has been crisscrossing the country since 2008 as The Classic Fleetwood Mac Tribute. Five pro musicians turned into masters of their trade through decades of individual music study, live performance, creative risk and devotion to the art. TUSK features note-perfect renditions of both the solo and full band songs, with each member specializing in one of the core lineup of Fleetwood Mac (Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie, John McVie, and Mick Fleetwood). They possess an electric stage presence that can only come from well over a decade touring together. Truly the best at what they do, TUSK is unmatched in their tribute to one of the greatest bands of all time.

Ballet Quad Cities invites students to an abridged educational matinée performance of The Nutcracker. This special one-hour performance features the same sets, costumes, special effects, and beautiful dancing found in the full production, making it ideal for field trips. In this classical holiday tale, Clara and Herr Drosselmeyer travel together to the Land of the Sweets, where the Sugar Plum Fairy is reunited with her prince and the magic unfolds. The performance features grand sets, stunning costumes, and a cast of 60!
