We had a marvelous time at our 20th Anniversary Celebration in April with Lincoln's own Ezinma sharing the stage with the Ravnan String Quartet and the Voices of Victory Gospel Choir — a concert that blew the roof off Kimball Recital Hall!

7:30PM: Dueling Divas - Who Sang It Better?

Award winning vocalists Jackie Allen and Susie Thorne answer their own version of the classic fashion question in "Who Sang It Better - from Broadway to the Beatles." This hilarious tongue-in-cheek competition features creative arrangements of familiar tunes spiced with more than a pinch of Midwestern humor.

The concert will take place outdoors in the glorious pine grove in the Prairie Pines Nature Preserve. Audience members are encouraged to bring folding chairs or blankets. Wine and food will be provided by Venue.
