Known to fans as M4, MarchFourth re-imagines a traditional marching band through world music influences and big top visual spectacles. Electric bass, diverse percussion, and brassy horns mingle with Eastern European gypsy, samba, funk, Afrobeat, jazz, and rock. Meanwhile, Cirque du Soleil-style dancers and acrobats perform stilt routines, play with fire, and toggle hula hoops for an explosive, theatrical performance.
Sunday 1/19. $15, 8pm. The Jefferson Theater, 110 E. Main St., Downtown Mall. 245-4980.
