When one hears the word drip, you may not automatically think of a good thing.
Drip of a faucet.
A nose dripping.
But Central Florida’s DRIP, a new permanent performance art experience located on I-Drive is most definitely something to consider a good thing. Actually, in my opinion, it’s probably one of the coolest things to have ever come to Orlando. Seriously.
The set-up when guests first enter is pretty cool. Your hand gets stamped, and according to the location of the stamp will determine your location during the show. Mine, personally, was on my right hand, so I was located just to the right of the stage during the performance.
As you can see, the audience is right up on the performers and are essentially part of the show. It’s very interactive.
This isn’t an exact representation of the show here in Orlando but it gives you a little idea about what the experience offers:
A few things to note:
- You will get messy. Perhaps paint. Perhaps water or sand. There’s a chance you could even have beer thrown on you (is that a bad thing?).
- It’s highly-interactive.
- It’s a little loud. There is a live band, after all.
- There are strobe lights used during the performance, if you have sensitivity to such things.
I hope you’re intrigued, and will pay these guys a visit. Central Florida needs more creative/arts experiences like this.

Very cool! I am excited, something like this is indeed needed, especially in this area.

Completely agree! I just hope there’s enough support–both from the local community as well as tourists–to survive.
