We vibe, we vibrate, hearts pumping, rhythm jumping,
Drumming up the earth’s vibrations, infusing our heartbeat, our breath…
Pulsating with theatrical magic, CoisCéim Dance Theatre's THE PIECE WITH THE DRUMS is a joyous, driving dance narrative between dancer and percussion.
Directed and choreographed by David Bolger, with music, beats and everything in between by pioneering jazz percussionist Conor Guilfoyle, it's a colourful exploration of relationships, spirituality, and our connection to rhythm, life and the cosmos.
