Day Trips (continued)
Boston Pops on Tour Hancher Auditorium, 141 East Park Rd, Iowa City , Tuesday, April 7, 7:30 p.m.
Winner of an astonishing five Oscars and twenty-two Grammys, John Williams may well be the greatest film composer of all time. His scores for Star Wars, Schindler’s List, Harry Potter, E.T. (The Extraterrestrial), Jurassic Park, the Indiana Jones films, and many more have made him a household name. Under the baton of Keith Lockhart, the Boston Pops celebrates a nearly forty- year association with Williams in an evening featuring excerpts from his best-loved scores – as well as some lesser-known gems. The price is $86 per person for Lower Balcony Right seating. To place your ticket order, contact Chelsea Marsengill at 319-358-2215 or FriendsClub@HillsBank.com.
Saturday Night Fever Circa ’21 Dinner Playhouse, Rock Island, IL, Wednesday, April 15
Tony Manero lives for the weekends when he and his friends go to the local disco and dance the night away. When a big dance competition is announced, he wrangles the beautiful and talented Stephanie to be his partner. As the two practice for the big night, they start to fall for each other as well. Based on the 1977 movie phenomenon that launched the disco era and made John Travolta a household name, Saturday Night Fever features hit songs from the Bee Gees, such as “Stayin’ Alive,” “Disco Inferno,” and “How Deep Is Your Love,” and is one of the most successful movie sound tracks of all time, winning a 1979 Grammy for Album of the Year and staying on U.S. album chart until March 1980. The stage musical includes almost all of the songs from the original movie soundtrack, and the high- octane energy will bring you back to the time when disco was king! Cost per person is $85 and includes motorcoach transportation, matinee show, meal, and taxes and gratuities. Register with a Friends Club representative at 319-679-2103 or FriendsClub@HillsBank.com.
