The Riverboat Ragtime Revue, presenting a smorgasbord of singing, dancing and comic routines, will perform at 7:30 Thursday night at Academic Auditorium.
The revue includes four singers and four Dixieland instrumentalists who recreate an 1890s riverboat show. Among the tunes will be "Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight," "Bill Bailey," "South Rampart Street," "Basin Street Blues," "Alexander's Ragtime Band" and a lovers' medley offering such favorites as "In the Good Old Summertime," "Ma, He's Makin' Eyes at Me" and "Moonlight Bay."
The program is presented by the Community Concert Association. Admission is free to association members, university students with an ID, and children accompanied by a member or paying adult. General admission is $10.
