Scholarships are the lifeline of Dominican, as almost half of our undergraduates are the first in their families to attend college and 100% of first-year students receive some type of financial aid. The Trustee Benefit Concert raises much needed scholarship funds for Dominican University’s deserving students.  Scholarship support allows our students the blessing and opportunity to focus on their studies with fewer financial worries.  

Concert - Yesterday and Today: The Interactive Beatles Experience

This amazing band performs and leaves the song choices completely in the hands of the audience. This is done through request cards that audience members fill out prior to the show. On the cards, audience members only need to fill out three things: their name, their favorite Beatles song, and the reason why they chose that song.

The cards are collected and minutes before the show beings, a set list is created based upon the songs chosen by that particular audience. As an added treat, the reasons that the audience members chose those songs make up the narrative of the evening.

Every show is different, every show is interactive and every show proves that the Beatles music truly is the soundtrack to our lives.
