Oh Susanna, Camptown Races, Beautiful Dreamer.  This presentation recounts the life and times and music of Stephen Foster, America's great 19th century songwriter. Starting with his birth in 1826, his early proclivity for music, his subsequent exposure to the minstrel tradition by age ten, and his brilliant but all too short songwriting career, this program presents examples of music not only from Foster's body of work, but also work from other influences present during the time of his life.  Stephen Foster's biography in song is outlined - with guitar, fiddle, banjo and dulcimer - in a highly interactive performance suitable for audiences of all ages.  Tickets can be reserved by calling 570-996-1500 and will be available at the door while they last.
