Presented as the latest event in the German American Heritage Center's popular “Kaffee und Kuchen” series, The DAR, Hannah Caldwell Chapter Contributions to Davenport History will, on September 13, find Hannah Caldwell Chapter Regent Terri Putnam Toppler discussing the Daughters of the American Revolution, a nonprofit, non-political volunteer organization dedicated to education, historic preservation, and patriotism.

With the third offering in its series directed and co-written by legendary director and Italian neorealist pioneer Roberto Rossellini, the German American Heritage Center continues its “The Lost Years of German Cinema: 1948-1963" film screenings with Germany, Year Zero, which enjoys a September 16 screening at Davenport venue The Last Picture House.

Described by Time Out New York as an “insanely fun mixtape musical” and by Variety as a show that “gleefully apes the worst excesses of the era's pole-dancing, crotch-grinding, big-hair-tossing movies,” the Broadway smash Rock of Ages enjoys a September 16 through November 7 run at Rock Island's Circa '21 Dinner Playhouse, treating audiences to a celebration of 1980s chart-toppers that NY1 called “so cleverly staged and impressively performed that it's an irresistible, offbeat trip of a show that hits all the right notes.”

A country-music singing/songwriting legend with 14 Grammy nominations to her name, Martina McBride brings her eagerly awaited national tour to Davenport's Rhythm City Casino Resort Event Center on September 13, the neo-traditionalist talent beloved for smash hits including "Independence Day," "Blessed," and "Concrete Angel."
