Come join the Masq(p)arade!
The 3rd Annual Masq(p)arade! performance progressive will take place on Friday, October 20, 2023, with shows every fifteen minutes from 5:30pm to 8:00pm. This whimsical progressive-style performance parade showcases a series of dynamic piano-based performances, taking place in the heart of Santa Barbara's historic cultural arts district in celebration of Pianos on State.
Masq(p)arade! enlists performers and pianists to create fifteen-minute works to be performed in succession, with a brief intermission between acts to allow participants to progress up State Street to enjoy the entire performance series. These bite-sized performances engage audience members through innovative presentations involving playful masks and fancifully-painted pianos. Audience members can get in on the fun by wearing festive masks as well!
