AFE Presents: Dueling Pianos

PITCH-PERFECT PIANO PROS

From the first note, Dueling Pianos draws you into a sing-along, laugh-along show that keeps you smiling for days. How does it work? Three musicians “duel it out” delivering spot-on versions of tunes from every era and every genre.

Join in and sing at the top of your lungs, or quietly enjoy the show. Either way, you’ll be humming the tunes long after the trio is gone.

• Thursday, March 10, 2022
  • Time: Starting at 6 p.m.
  • Location: Aurora Community Activity Center, Bldg. 500
• Meet & Greet with Photo Opportunity available after the show. Don't miss the autographs or the selfies!
