Iconic production, forged by the creators of “Drumline” blockbusters, takes audiences on a thrilling journey of rhythm, emotion, and innovation
DRUMLine Live, the electrifying production crafted by the musical visionaries behind 20th Century Fox’s blockbuster hits, Drumline and Drumline: A New Beat, is set to dazzle audiences at the Dennis C. Moss Cultural Arts Center on Saturday, January 27, 2024 at 8 p.m. with an all-new show featuring fresh music and choreography. Having taken center stage on some of the grandest stages across America, Japan, and Korea, DRUMLine Live will unveil a sensational, thrilling performance at the Moss Center. Tickets are available here.
Since its inception in 2009, DRUMLine Live has captivated audiences at more than 1,500 shows, and fans can now expect an even more exhilarating experience. Featuring dazzling choreography and explosive percussion, DRUMLine Live pays homage to the show-style marching bands that gained popularity at Historically Black Colleges and Universities, or HBCUs. Band spirit will come to life through the extraordinary talents of its world-class cast of percussionists, musicians, and dancers, while the production seamlessly blends hip-hop, American soul, gospel, and jazz, creating a mesmerizing musical showcase.
DRUMLine Live’s upcoming performance promises to be a dynamic celebration of the rich legacy of HBCU band culture. Heading this exceptional production is DRUMLine Live Director, CEO, and playwright Don P. Roberts, affectionately known as “Hollywood’s Band Director.” A former drum major and trumpet player of the renowned Florida A&M University Marching 100, Roberts brings his extensive experience and passion for music education to the forefront. Roberts played a pivotal role as an executive band consultant on the 20th Century Fox hit movie Drumline, the foundation upon which DRUMLine Live is built. Roberts has also left his mark as a band consultant for Missy Elliot’s Bad Man, Beyoncé’s 2018 Coachella performance, and her Netflix special Becoming. In addition, he has worked as a music producer for Universal Studios’ Little in 2019.
DRUMLine Live is recommended for all ages. Tickets for the show range from $35 to $80. Ages 13-22 can get $5 tickets via Culture Shock Miami. Tickets may be purchased by visiting MossCenter.org, through the Moss Center Box Office in person, or by calling (786) 573-5300.
