Time Keeps the Drummer by Fevered Sleep

About

Saturday 1st November 2025 | 12pm - 5pm
Nottingham College - City Hub
Tickets: £5 / £2.50 Concessions

Time Keeps The Drummer is a durational show by Fevered Sleep for family audiences, performed by children and a single adult percussionist.

It playfully invites you to slow down and experience time differently. To step into a space where time is fluid, joyful and chaotic. A space of wild abandon and limitless possibility.

This brand new show was commissioned by WestK in Hong Kong, premiered in 2025. This edition has a new cast of children from Nottingham, who work together with Fevered Sleep to make a unique performance.

Through improvised movement, text, projection, music and lighting, each performance unfolds as an unrepeatable experience, directed live and shaped in real-time.

It sometimes looks like a show, sometimes it's more like a live gallery installation.

Alongside soaring, evocative music by award-winning turntablist Mariam Rezaei, a single adult drummer plays a motion capture drum kit through the entire performance, improvising percussion in the air.

Experienced only through the headphones provided, the drums are the ceaseless beat of clock time.

This 5-hour performance invites you to experience time on your own terms. It's a show that evolves throughout the day, offering an opportunity to slow down, to linger, and to rest.

Audiences are free to come and go as they please throughout the duration of the piece.

Suitability guidance: Suitable for all ages and families.
