FEEL the rhythm of the beat with the Mugenkyo Taiko Drummers, who bring the traditional sound of the Japanese Taiko drum to The Old Town Hall in Hemel Hempstead next month.

Their theatrical concert, The Way Of The Drum, captures the intensity and skill of a performance which fuses dance, athleticism and rhythm and reveals the history and culture of this fascinating folk art.

The performance is suitable for ages 12 and up and takes place on Saturday, March 1 at 8pm at The Old Town Hall, High Street, Hemel Hempstead. There will also be a drumming workshop before the concert for ages 16 and up from 2pm to 4pm.
