The U-S Cellular Coliseum will be the scene of a nationally-televised show this fall, featuring country singer Sara Evans and Skating Legend Peggy Fleming and 11 Olympic, World, and National figure skating champions.
Coliseum Manager Mike Nelson tells WJBC's Laughlin and Reynolds, the one-time-only performance, hosted by Fleming, will be on a Wednesday night, October 15th and it'll also be a fundraiser for the Susan G. Komen Foundation.

NBC will air the two-hour special October 25th. Nelson says the Bloomington venue was chosen in part because of the promoter's association with Nelson's father, who was in charge of advertising for State Farm.
Tickets for the show range from $30 to $105 and go on sale August 16th.
