For her role as “classical pianist”, Sarah Hagen was awarded as the BC Touring Council’s 2015 Touring Artist of the Year. With a performance career taking her from Hornby Island, BC to Gothenburg, Sweden, and onto Carnegie Hall as a First Prize Winner in the 2013 Bradshaw & Buono International Piano Competition, Sarah’s favourite audience reviews from concerts remain: "She played the piano" and "It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.” Now Sarah transforms her award-winning role as “concert pianist” into a stand-up, or rather, sit-down piano-filled comedy. “Perk up, pianist!” is a uniquely charming music and storytelling experience that takes you deep inside the world of a touring classical musician.
"Perk up, pianist!" - A sit-down comedy act that will make you "fall in love with its performer."
