The Henderson Area Arts Alliance is thrilled to welcome DRUMLine Live!, the international tour created by the musical team behind the hit movies Drumline and Drumline: A New Beat to the Preston Arts Center this Sunday, February 5, 2023 at 7:30pm.
DRUMLine! embodies the soulful, high- stepping style of the Historically Black College and University (HBCU) marching band tradition. With riveting rhythms, bold beats and ear-grabbing energy, the stage show is a synchronized musical showcase of the HBCU experience. Incorporating original compositions and soul-infused interpretations of top 40 hits, group performances range from colorful, choreographed routines to heavy doses of drum riffs and cadences.
Created by the musical team behind 20th Century Fox’s hit movies “Drumline” (now celebrating its 20th Anniversary) and “Drumline: A New Beat,” this show- stopping attraction has already paraded onto some of the biggest theatre stages in America, Japan, and Korea. Be prepared to laugh, sing, dance, and cry because DRUMLine Live! is a high-octane musical roller coaster ride that will hit every emotion in your body.
