THE AMAZING POWER OF NAMING
A One-Woman Show
with Drum Accompaniment


“Changing my name legally was the single most empowering act of my life.”

--Simone LaDrumma                               

    What’s in a name?
    It depends on how you look at it. Your name can be “only” the thing by which you are known – or it can be a reflection of your highest vision of yourself, a source of power, strength and inspiration.

Learn how your name can be your ally in the endless striving to be truthful to the
real you.

    Through the telling of my story – my journey to LaDrumma – I will attempt to answer the most common question asked of me: How did you get into drumming? I will accompany my story with my drumming.
    You’ll be encouraged to think of the many ways in which names affect our lives, for good or ill. Find out what’s involved in changing one’s name – from a legal, social and a spiritual standpoint – and listen to some of the surprises that were in store for me when I legalized my name (first as well as last) in 1996. You’ll also hear some fascinating facts on the subject of names – like how relatively recently in Western history the concept of a last name is, and the roles names have played through the generations.
    At the end of my show, we’ll find out how others feel about their name. If there are folks present who have picked their own names, like me, or if their names have played a significant role in their lives, they will be invited to share their story with all of us.
