Bridge Street Theatre presents "Mendings of Time: A Live Percussion Immersive Experience" on Friday, October 17, 2025 with three performances at 10:30am, 2:00pm, and 7:00pm — each show offering a distinct, one-of-a-kind experience. This immersive project by Jeff Tripoli and Sam Fishman combines live percussion, improvisation, meditation, movement, and sound design to create a meditative escape — a space to reconnect with inner rhythm and find healing through vibration and silence alike.

Tripoli, known for his work with Canadian Celtic folk rockers The Town Pants and his album Perspectives, mixes electronic, sample-based, and acoustic textures for rich soundscapes rarely heard in conventional percussion. Sam Fishman, currently the drummer for Driftwood, brings years of experience in live performance, studio work, and teaching. This show offers not just performance but sanctuary: a chance to let sound wash over you, to pause, to feel, to awaken.
