About this Event

🔥 A Remix of History and Culture 🔥

Get ready, you'll never be the same! Vigilance is not just a show; it's an immersive journey that transports you through time. We are merging the harrowing, heroic stories of the Vigilance Committee in Albany with the expressive power, rhythm, and rebellion of modern Black culture.

Set against the backdrop of the fight for freedom, this performance explores the eternal vigilance required to gain and keep liberty. Through a dynamic blend of theatre, music, movement, and visual art, you will witness the spirit of resistance that has pulsed through generations.

What to Expect:

  • Immersive Storytelling: Be more than a spectator. Take part in a Vigilance Committee meeting and make baskets for Freedom-Seekers.
  • Cultural Fusion: Witness a unique artistic collision where 19th-century history meets the beats, rhymes, and visual language of spoken word poetry.
  • A Powerful Message: A tribute to Harriet Myers, whose hidden labor paved the way for true liberation.
