For anyone who remembers the music of the 50's and 60's. "Songs My Sister Played" is a powerfully expressive collection on nostalgia and memories.The show features Virgil Scott as the sole performer. Accompanied by his four-piece band, he reminisces his boyhood innocence through monologue and song (25 in all), recounting the most memorable cultural and musical events of the time.
Comical and uplifting in tone, Virgil's energy and subtle wit captures the essence of the era, involving the audience throughout the night, in impromptu dialogue and invitation to sing along.
"Songs My Sister Played" is a unique, heartfelt, neighbourhood story, from one of Canada's best storyteller/singers.

"Delightful! What Great Memories! What a Voice! This is one of Canada's greatest singers, this is a must see. I laughed, I cried, and I almost danced. Virgil really has something special with this show, and the whole country is going to want to see it."
