The entire family enjoyed this show. The audience was engaged, the vocalists are very talented. The history lessons were painlessly and seamlessly incorporated into the presentation.
Everything about the show was "fantabulous" from the explanation of the djembe and how it was used as a means of communication; how that basic beat can be heard in music throughout the ages; the harmony that was created not only in the singing and playing of the various instructments, but in the way the performers interacted with each other, and of course the opportunity to play the djembe as part of the performance. Also loved the songs and the meaning behind them. Was hoping a CD would be available at the end of the show. The energry and warmth generated on the stage was easily transferred to the audience through the performers' interaction with the audience and the audience with each other. FANTABULOUS!!!
Djembe! Was more than just the fun we expected, it was emotionally moving and so uplifting! We would highly recommend Djembe! to anyone in the area- a great activity for the entire family.
Interesting and fun! Loved the interactive experience! Great for teens!!
All audience members were given drums, so a very interactive, fun experience...all musicians and singer on stage were enthusiastic and talented as they showed the influence of djembe from the beginning to current day...we really enjoyed it!
A lot of fun . And kid friendly , very entertaining
Most fun we've had on a night out in a long time; and I was blown away by the talent! Amazing singers and master drummers. I highly recommend this show to everyone!
The show was fantastic. We had so much fun and the performers were great and also looked like they were having fun. It’s a musical journey that you get to interact with your own Djembe drum.
The Djembe Show at the Apollo Theater was a jam-packed ball of interactive fun. Mack received a djembe for Christmas and after the show, he has a better idea of what kind of fun he can have with this drum. Great history lesson on the unifying language of music!
