Grand Allusion plays Styx’s Crystal Ball in full at the Wildey Theatre
Grand Allusion’s announced program has a clear anchor: Styx’s Crystal Ball, performed as a complete album, alongside more Styx classics. The concert is listed for 8 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 28, 2026, at the Wildey Theatre in Edwardsville.
An album at the center, not a song-by-song promise
The event announcement identifies Crystal Ball as the album Grand Allusion will perform in full, then adds more Styx classics to the program. It does not name the additional songs, so the announcement establishes the set’s broad shape without offering a complete setlist.
The show is billed as part of a 50th-anniversary celebration of Styx. For listeners deciding whether the concert suits them, the key distinction is the full-album format; the listing does not say how the other songs will be arranged around it.
