Program Description

The DDU Show is an energetic fusion of Australian music, culture, art, science, comedy, character building, anti-bullying and audience participation. The didgeridoo has been played by Aboriginal Australians for at least 1,500 years, and is known for its otherworldly sound. DDU performer Darren Liebman plays a variety of exotic didgeridoos and worldly percussion instruments, demonstrating various playing styles and upbeat rhythms. He also uses a multitude of props – motivational signs, maps, globes, artifacts, artwork, puppets and more – to deliver educational lessons and empowering messages. The program is very participatory, and several segments involve students playing instruments, dancing or acting out a story. DDU is interactive, educational, motivational and super fun for al ages!

(We also offer didgeridoo workshops, residencies and virtual programs. Hundreds of references are available upon request.)
