The Recycled Percussion Show

We just got back from The Recycled Percussion Show.

I did not upload this photo up-side-down! When the curtain rose the four members of Recycled Percussion were suspended above the stage hanging up-side-down, each playing trash cans, laundry baskets, 5 gallon pails and other recycled stuff.

Part of the show included this construction van when they also made music with step ladders and power tools, including a chain saw.

Before we entered the theater we were given drum sticks and asked to select a recycled item to make music with. Martha chose a small sauce pan while I picked out this cool colander. This show has more audience participation than any other show on earth.
