Freedom on the Move is a rock-theatre experiment rooted in Plymouth, where a choir, a rock band and a promoter collide to create something entirely new. Through workshops, rehearsals and shared dialogue, the project explores what happens when radically different sounds, values and motivations meet — and how they can find common rhythm. Inspired by Othello, it’s about hearing for yourself, not the whispers of others, and discovering what’s possible when you listen differently. The journey will culminate in a free performance where audiences, once divided by taste, come together under one roof to become part of the same song.
In a time when hope can feel scarce, Freedom on the Move offers a shared moment of connection — reminding people what it feels like to belong, to be moved, and to stand beside strangers and realise that, somehow, we’re all part of the same song.
