"a unique and very special experience"
Oily Cart toured a version of Drum created for very young Autistic children and disabled children who experience the most barriers to access (sometimes labelled as having Profound and Multiple Learning Disabilities).
Listen to the gentle rhythm of the big bass drum, watch the shadows dancing on the surface of the small drums. Join the Oily Cart in this wonderful new multi-sensory adventure.

"DRUM was so well-received that the rest of the school is demanding an opportunity to see Oily Cart. The actors were patient and professional. I can't speak highly enough of the standard of each performance, the staff and pupils were stunned. The creativity and originality made it a unique and very special experience for our pupils."
Audience feedback
"I thought DRUM was outstanding - it had original and effective ideas that really interested our children. The actors/musicians were brilliant with the children, and the whole performance was excellently delivered."
