BAM Precussion mixes slapstick comedy with explosive, electrifying, over-the-top percussion action. The characters, with powerful rhythmic abilities and offering deliriously funny sketches, look like they walked straight out of a cartoon and speak a unique language: BAMspeech, spoken only by them, but understood by everyone from 3 to 83. Leonard Nimoy Thalia at Symphony Space, 2537 Broadway at 95th St. Jan. 17, 11 a.m. & 2 p.m. Running time is 60 minutes. Tickets are $15 at symphonyspace.org.
