Drumstruck (Off-Broadway) News & Features

At Drumstruck there's a two-foot-tall drum on every seat - and the entire audience gets the chance to make extraordinary music together! Direct from sold-out engagements from Johannesburg to Sydney, Drumstruck arrives at New World Stages with a troupe of 11 South and West African percussionists. They start the show with a pulse-racing bang: song, dance and eye-blurring drum performances. Then they lead the audience in an exhilarating (and tension-busting) drum-it-yourself jam session. At Drumstruck, a troupe of master percussionists dazzles with their music - and the audience gets to play along. This crowd-pleasing phenomenon is "a ball for all ages," according to WOR Radio. "It's not to be missed". Time Out New York proclaims: "Simply exhilarating! The fun starts a half hour before curtain when arriving audience members find an African drum on every seat. A dazzling exhibition of song, dance, percussion, humor and storytelling and a mesmerizing interactive experience."
