Created by Toronto’s Project: Humanity, Freedom Singer is a documentary-style piece of theatre that blends Khari Wendell McClelland’s original music with 1850s freedom songs, verbatim interview excerpts, and first-hand stories as he retraces the steps of his great-great-great-grandmother Kizzy and collected the songs that likely underscored her escape to Canada through the Underground Railroad.
Freedom Singer brings his journey to life on stage, along with the music he has reinvented through his contemporary aesthetics of soul, funk, hip-hop and gospel.
