Welcome to the 10th Freedom Festival. We’re delighted you’ve come along to celebrate with us as we continue to explore the legacy of William Wilberforce and what Freedom means to the city of Hull.

This year’s festival is a truly remarkable and bold one, jam packed with extraordinary performance, exhibitions, musicians, poets, dancers, circus, talks, interventions, spectacles, feasts and indescribable moments, which we hope you’ll never forget.

From dance shows in car parks and giant red giraffes playing with opera singers in Queen Victoria Square to kids cutting hair; it’s going to be a Freedom Festival weekend to remember.

We’re also going to talk, we’re going to eat together and we’re going to discuss Freedom like never before. Explore what Freedom means to us now in 2017 and how we as people

can be brave, responsible and connected enough to make positive change happen.

I urge you to try new things, to explore the programme and jump right in. This is your festival.

To all our volunteers, board, artists, crew, funders, partners and amazing team at Freedom Festival HQ, this would not be possible without your unwavering support, hard work and dedication. Thank you.

Southpaw Dance Company presents RUSH. In creative partnership with NOVAK and produced by Events International

Dance, Spectacle

A critically-acclaimed, large-scale, mass movement dance spectacular, RUSH features a cast of up to 100 members of the Hull community, Southpaw’s company dancers and stunning projection mapping by Novak.

Inspired by a 21st century phenomenon of mass protest, it’s a celebration of cultural expression and identity, of local lives and daily struggles with community at its heart. Told through three characters, RUSH examines the frustrations that move us to affect change, offering dance, music and the power of protest as a voice to express them - a voice firmly rooted in the cultural identity of Hull.

Robby Graham (Choreographer) has performed, taught and choreographed around the world, including the Royal Opera House, the favelas of Rio De Janeiro and New York. He is Artistic Director of Southpaw Dance Company and was recently Movement Director for Angels in America, National Theatre.

Periplum and Corn Exchange Newbury presents 451

Theatre, Promenade

Inspired by Ray Bradbury’s visionary novel Fahrenheit 451, this incendiary outdoor performance recounts the story of a society where books are banned and knowledge is denied.

451 combines immersive sound, dramatic action and pyrotechnics to depict a dystopic society where literature is outlawed and violence is rewarded. Depicting a post-truth world where people turn their backs on knowledge and nothing is what it seems, we could even believe that maybe, just maybe, it isn’t all too far-fetched as we witness an increasing rise in attacks on freedom.

Compagnie Off presents Les Girafes

Street Theatre, Walkabout, Spectacle

The enthusiastic circus director bangs his drum, crashes his cymbals and dreams of his giraffes jumping through circles of flames. His wife, the diva, sings on and on.

A herd of giraffes follows them gracefully through the centre of Hull, occasionally allowing themselves to be momentarily tamed by the audience. But where will it all end?

With a healthy dose of clowning, bangs, live music and theatrical madness, the travelling band unravel a riot of colour and carnival as they pass through our city. A large-scale, fun-filled spectacle for all the family to celebrate our tenth anniversary. Don’t miss it!

La Collectif G Bistaki presents The Baina Trampa Fritz Fallen

Theatre, Dance, Visual Arts

A delightful postmodernist promenade performance.

Always on the verge of surreal madness, those cheeky rascals La Collectif G Bistaki are joining Freedom Festival with their wacky voodoo rituals, surreal video projections, passionate tango, gleaming white suits, a ton of corn and fiery fights.

Expect multiple stops around the side streets of The Guildhall as we journey together, before heading back through Queens Gardens for a bolero-inspired finale where ducks may or not get involved, corn will definitely be used and a choir supported by local participants will help to light the way.

One of the most surreal French theatrical moments you’ll ever see.

Hull - a city with freedom in its bones. But are we really free? What does that actually mean?

Mammalian Diving Reflex presents Haircuts by Children

Theatre, Interactive, Participatory

Haircuts by Children is exactly what it says: a group of children are given a crash course in hairdressing and run a salon, offering free haircuts to the public.

An event that will test your courage and faith in the future, surrender your preconceptions (and your scalp!) to the aesthetic choices of these mini-barbers. This is a whimsical piece that plays with the enfranchisement of children and the level of trust we afford them, creating dialogue about power reversals and putting our vanity to the test.

So let them trim your fears as they prove themselves leaders, responsible citizens - and dedicated coiffeurs.

The Wilberforce Lecture presented by Mr Kofi Annan Former Secretary-General of the UN and Founder and Chair of the Kofi Annan Foundation

Talk

We’re honoured to be working in partnership with The Wilberforce Lecture Trust and Hull City Council to welcome this extraordinary guest to deliver this year’s annual Wilberforce Lecture.

The annual Wilberforce Lecture was established in Hull in the early 1990s in what seemed then - albeit briefly - an optimistic time, with dictatorships collapsing across the globe.

Kofi Annan, the founding chair of the Kofi Annan Foundation, is a Nobel Peace Prize laureate and was the Secretary-General of the United Nations between 1997 and 2006.

What better way for us to celebrate the work of William Wilberforce than by welcoming Mr Kofi Annan to Hull during our tenth Freedom Festival.

“An extraordinary piece of musical theatre…exhilarating.” The Guardian

Folk music plays, food is served, come sit and enjoy the feast.

Suddenly your table is upturned as actors wearing sheep masks play out a protest. Face-to-face with riot police, your seat becomes a barricade. With nowhere to run. You’re part of the protest.

Overhead, big screens play news footage from February 2014 when protestors set up in Kiev’s Maidan Square against a corrupt, pro-Russian president, Viktor Yanukovych. The footage is terrifying, but how does it feel from within the protest?

Emotions are tricked by actions. Adrenalin surges, part of a group, you can’t help but feel committed to the cause. Counting Sheep arms you with knowledge, experience and courage, yet, as the final scenes show, nothing prepares you for war.

This sell-out show from the 2016 Edinburgh Festival Fringe invites you to become part of the revolution.

Written by Mark and Marichka Marczyk.
