Prepare to have your minds blown! 4 quirky misfits turn everyday junk—wheelie bins, kitchen scraps, plastic bags-into an electrifying symphony of beats, rhythm & creativity.
This high-energy adventure transforms trash into treasure with explosive drumming, dance and laugh-out-loud comedy. An abandoned kitchen becomes a drum set, plastic bags turn into instruments and the human body becomes a sound machine! It’s a thrilling celebration of rhythm, imagination & sustainability for all ages. Speaking in ‘Rhythmish’—a playful language made of rhythm & gibberish—this show will hook you from start to finish!
Join these musical misfits who reinvigorate forgotten junk. Recently returning from a huge tour to China, this performance is not to be missed!

Kids in Adelaide review | ⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Box Show by Junkyard Beats is an absolute winner – pure energy, creativity, and fun from start to finish. With four incredibly talented performers, this show turns everyday objects into a full-blown musical experience, proving that you don’t need fancy instruments to make a beat.
Using recycled props like cardboard boxes, buckets, and packing tape, the cast builds a rhythm-filled world that’s impossible not to tap along to. There’s no real dialogue, just hilarious gibberish and expressive storytelling that keeps everyone engaged – and that’s probably why our kids liked it so much! The drumming, dance, and physical comedy all come together in a way that’s both clever and ridiculously entertaining.
Audience interaction adds to the fun, and the intimate setting of the Virago at Gluttony makes it even better. If you’re looking for a show that’s bursting with energy and creativity, The Box Show is a must-see!
