The Western Illinois University Bureau of Cultural Affairs (BCA) presents Disenchanted!, for one performance at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Nov. 10 in the Grand Ballroom of the University Union.
Laura Elizabeth Flanagan, one of the actors, is a native of Quincy, Illinois and attended WIU. This performance is the only one in our area during this national tour.
With book, lyrics and music by Dennis T Giacino, with Fiely Matias, the Off-Broadway run of this musical comedy was nominated for multiple awards and launched a national tour, which comes to Macomb in an intimate, cabaret-style performance with table seating.
The original storybook heroines are not too happy with the ways they’ve been portrayed, so they’ve tossed their tiaras to come to life and set the record straight. Forget the princesses you think you know, these royal renegades are here to comically belt out the truth in this not-for-children musical comedy.
The recommended audience age is 16 and older. This show contains adult language and adult content. General admission tickets are $30 in advance and $35 the day of performance. WIU student tickets are $10 in advance and $15 the day of.

Galesburg Community Chorus Presents: "An American Tapestry"
2025-11-15 19:30 (America/Chicago) | First Presbyterian Church Galesburg, 101 N Prairie Street, Galesburg, 61401, United States
Featuring Randall Thompson’s Frostiana and Alex Berko’s Sacred Place. The centerpiece will be the hauntingly beautiful Frostiana, Seven Country Songs by Randall Thompson (1899-1984). This autumnal song cycle is a setting of Robert Frost’s beloved poem, “The Road Not Taken.” The piece offers the community the opportunity to reflect on where we have come from, where we are now, and where we are going—a much needed moment in these fraught times to pause for introspection and to embrace renewal of hope and determination.
Also featured in this concert will be Sacred Place by Alex Berko (b. 1995), a shimmering choral meditation on reverence for the earth and the creation of meaningful and healing spaces externally within our communities and internally within ourselves—a fitting expression of the mission of The Galesburg Community Chorus and the musical collaborations presented in this season. The piece speaks to the tension between human limitations and our responsibility to truth, as we reckon with the beauty and the frailty of the natural world.
Tickets are $20 for general admission, seniors are $17, and students are free! For group pricing, please contact Tracy Elizabeth Silber at galesburgchorusmanager@gmail.com. Buy your tickets ahead of time here!
