By Faith Tittle

The Betty Jayne Brimmer Center for the Performing Arts and the Scottish Rite Theatre are partnering with the Fogelberg Foundation of Peoria to present this special weekend of events! Kick the weekend off Friday, September 30th at the Betty Jayne as they host Fogelberg: Home Free. The evening will be led by a talented group of performers playing your Fogelberg favorites! The Betty’s classy yet casual atmosphere is the perfect place to gather prior to the main event, Dan Fogelberg: Native Son.

Native Son is a staged concert with performances both Saturday, October 1st and Sunday, October 2nd at The Scottish Rite Theatre in downtown Peoria. An ensemble cast of singers and dancers joins a 12-piece band to perform over 30 iconic Dan Fogelberg songs! This special tribute honors the timeless music of Dan Fogelberg on the 50th anniversary of his debut album. The theatrical combination of storytelling, music, and dance will introduce a new generation to the musical legacy of Dan Fogelberg and re-inspire old friends of Dan's music.
