A distant future.

Earth is nothing more than a hazy memory.

Humanity wanders the endless universe in search of a new home.

And there’s only one person left who can find it.


Come along on the journey in Expedition Five, a barbershop a cappella musical, written and performed by Vocal Revolution and VocaMotion choruses.


On Sunday May 31st at 2pm, Expedition Five will transform Somerville’s Arts At The Armory into a thrilling and heartfelt journey through space. The inspiring story - told through a selection of stirring a cappella performances - follows a team of explorers who must travel the hostile universe while navigating their own trials and triumphs. In the end, their mission becomes more than just discovering a new planet; they must also find a new idea of what it means to be brave. 


Early Bird tickets are available until May 16, so don’t delay! Tickets can be purchased at Eventbrite.  Please note that, as a 501c3 charitable organization, 100% of the proceeds from ticket sales and donations goes back into supporting high-quality music education and hosting stellar community events!
