Drumming in theatre shows

Keith Debarra performed in 'The Lost Disc', 

the latest production by the The London Snorkeling Team. We have asked Keith to tell us more about this production:

"I performed again at Shoreditch Town Hall for three nights with the London Snorkelling Team. 
Last year, I performed with them in a collaborative production of 'A Mid Summer Night's Dream' with Filter (production company) and Lyric Hammersmith. 

​As well as a run at the Lyric, we were also very lucky to bring the show to Australia and Dublin.  It was a great experience and great to be involved in something quite different from what I'm used to. They are very creative people making some very interesting things things with music and theatre." 
​

​Again, it's a very interesting

experience to see how something like this is put together both musically and theatrically.  It is a new production based on a short sketch which this team put together for another show some years ago. 

My role, as you might have guessed, was to play drums but I had some lines to deliver at some point which was fun and nerve racking .We had rehearsed a lot and I think it was a really good show. Let us know if you came along for either of the three shows at the Shoreditch Town Hall." ​
