Drum Machine is Jill Bernard’s one-person unscripted muscial featuring multiple characters in scenes, monologues and songs accompanied by the mad beats of the Zoom-Rhythmtrak 123 which Bernard calls, “Nature’s finest drum machine.” Typically the show opens by interviewing a member of the audience, and weaving details of their life into a historical period suggested by the audience.

We'll be playing Jill Bernard roulette and see which one shows up.
And here are the formats that the other performers will be doing:
JOHN BUSEMAN uses theatrical clowning and physical comedy to present a day in the life of an ordinary household object through the people who use it and the other objects occupying its world.
JAY BIRD presents “UP YOURS!” a one-man version of Up With People, the multicultural organization best known for their high energy, family-friendly, and large cast musicals.
KRISTIN FIRTH channels Revlis: Improv... FROM THE FUTURE.
ADAM GUTIERREZ as legendary Texas Wrestling Coach Earnest Thompson, prepares you for the ultimate match.
TODD HART presents “God, Todd, and the Devil” where the voices in Todd’s head come to life.
MARC MAJCHER explores a world very much like our own - but not quite - in “World Without A ______.”
KIM ROCHE takes you back to a high school classroom on a very *special* day.
MARCI SPIVEY brings you a faded star you’re sure to love almost as much as she loves herself in “Diva With A V.”

I am hoping there's a make-up exam, because if the world never gets to see Ted Meredith as Red Haggard or Jason Vines in Blasterpiece Theater, well, it's a far sadder place.
