OGDENSBURG -- DRUMLine Live will be presented by Ogdensburg Command Performances, Saturday, March 4, at 7:45 p.m. in the new George Hall Auditorium at Ogdensburg Free Academy.
[img_assist|nid=193047|title=|desc=|link=url|url=http://northcountrynow.com/submitting-photo|align=right|width=180|height=149]Theatregoers will be treated to amazing choreography and athletic feats, the rhythmic sounds of trumpets, and the speed and pulsating force of the drumline.
Musical Director and CEO Don P. Roberts was inspired by the hit 2002 movie Drumline starring Nick Cannon and Orlando Jones.
Roberts adapted the band’s original outdoor show to thrill audiences with a new version, to be performed live on stage.
DRUMLine Live presents the sounds of the great brass past side-by-side with the hottest contemporary hip-hop and R&B.
“I guarantee people have never seen a show like this before,” says Roberts. “The cast of musicians and singers, led by an all-star group of percussionists, will perform extraordinary choreography that will have the audience on their feet, and dancing in the aisles, throughout the entire show!”
Mr. Roberts credits the 2002 movie for bringing excitement and relevancy to a wide demographic, but promises the stage version will be even more emotional and intense.
“It’s the rare show that can bring together the generation that relates to the Jackson Five or James Brown, with their kids or grandkids who listen to top 40,” says Roberts.
Tickets are $16-$40.
