kevingamin Posted September 4, 2016 Author Share Posted September 4, 2016 What's NOT on the schedule is the Freelancers Alumni! They are performing now as pre-show entertainment and the 2016 DCA Mini Corps Silver Medalist. The show, Wayne's World, opens with the 1988 and 2009 Blue Devils classic, Happy Days Are Here Again!
