The infamous New York gospel songsters, Reverend Billy & The Stop Shopping Choir, are back in the UK to ignite a revolutionary spirit.
If you're troubled by climate change, excessive packaging, extreme weather or the unchecked power of fossil fuel industries, this event is for you. And if you’re not, it’s REALLY for you!
Let Reverend Billy and his unique choir bring out the spirit of the Earth in all of us. Expect powerful anthems, beautifully sung solos, and thought-provoking sermons that will leave you reflective and exhilarated.
Join the movement. Be hopeful. Earth-A-Lujah!
A powerful set of anthems and provocations that goes way beyond the usual protest fare and manages to fulfil Brian Eno’s formulation of engendering feelings of re-enchantment, regret, and exhilaration. – Phil English, The Wire
Co-presented by Home Live Art & Hastings Storytelling Festival.

Rev Billy and the Stop Shopping Choir is a radical performance community of singing New Yorkers who stage creative actions around the world.
Over the years, they have performed in the lobbies of countless banks, The United States Congress, The Christmas Parade at Disneyland, and Monsanto's corporate HQ as well as many popular theatre, music and festival spaces.
