Mick The Fiddler And Irish Diner

March 14, 2020 at 6pm

On Saturday, March 14th, The Preston Community Arts Center will present MICK THE FIDDLER in “An Evening of American Irish Songs and Stories”. This is performed by West Virginia’s “Bard of Education”, actor and musician, Mick Souter and will take place at the Preston Community Arts Center in Kingwood, West Virginia. The show includes numerous sing-a-longs and performances on a wide array of instruments, including banjo, fiddle, auto harp, guitar, dulcimer and mandolin. The singing will be interspersed with Irish humorous and historically based tales that frame the songs while adding an intriguing touch of Irish “blarney” to the mix.
This will be presented as a dinner theater, offering an array of Irish culinary favorites to compliment the evening, delight the senses and charm the palate of even the most discriminating Irishman.
Mick Souter is West Virginia’s leading educational performing artist who has made over 3,000 appearances at festivals, theaters, state parks and schools throughout West Virginia and several other states. His dynamic performances and instrumental versatility have thoroughly entertained audiences of all ages over the past 30 years.
The show will include a variety of American Irish songs that celebrate the experiences and sentiments of the Irish immigrants who poured onto America’s shores during the 1800’s and early 1900’s. In the process they brought not only their indomitable spirit and willingness to tackle back-breaking jobs like building the railroads and working the mines, but also brought their wit, culture and captivating music. “Mick the Fiddler” will escort the audience through their story and enchant the lover of St. Patrick’s day songs with numerous classics such as “Wild Rover”, “Wearin’ of the Green”, “Whiskey in the Jar”, “When Irish Eyes Are Smilin’”, “Molly Malone” and many more.
The enticing combination of Celtic cuisine and marvelous musical mischief will make this an evening to remember—all in a family friendly atmosphere—surrounded by fellow lovers of Saint Patrick’s Day in the Wearin’ of the Green.
Dinner Buffet and Dessert will be provided by the Preston County Inn. Dinner will be at 6pm followed by the show at 7pm.
Prices are as follows; Dinner & Show $35, Dessert & Show $25, Show only $15. Please make your dinner reservations by March 12th.
