Ragtime, blues and Americana pianist Scott Kirby showcases a multi-media stage performance at San Juan Community Theatre on Friday, June 24 at 7:30 p.m.

Main Street Souvenirs features live piano music, a spoken narrative, and a video presentation—all in celebration of the American heartland.

The visual “projected” dimension of the program will accompany both the narrative and the music throughout (featuring such composers as Scott Joplin and John Philip Sousa), and will consist of Kirby’s original artwork, his video footage, his photography and archival photos. The narrative, also written by Kirby, reflects a thematic progression, weaving different concepts about small town American life together with musical, visual and literary examples which illustrate these themes.

Kirby, who lives in Boulder, CO, served as Musical Director of the Scott Joplin Ragtime Festival Rocky Mountain Ragtime and American Music Festival in Boulder, as well as director of the San Juan Islands Ragtime Institute. He has been critically acclaimed for his interpretation of ragtime music.
