By Ernest Kearney — Rhythm Delivered features DrumatiX, a gaggle of tap-dancing percussionist clowning mimes unleashed on the Fringe by the group’s ringmaster, den mother, and choreographer Noa Barankin. DrumatiX is shooting for a fusion of Blue Man Group and Stomp with a splash of The Flying Karamazov Brothers added in.
It’s a tall order, and there are moments during their hour of hoofing and hooting on stage when they come up short, but you’ve gotta give them points for chutzpah.
They’re the most brittle when attempting to out-stomp Stomp, but their Taiko-style precision pieces are solidly entertaining and impressively executed, and bless their three-beat Riff walking hearts, they’re giving their all to bring in the fun. And that’s good for a Silver Medal.
