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!  


ABOUT OUR ORGANIZATION

Vocal Revolution is the highest-ranked men’s chorus ever in the Northeastern District (NED) of the Barbershop Harmony Society, with 20 District Championship titles. The chorus is dedicated to its mission of contributing to the community through high-quality performances and support of music education.


VocaMotion is the only treble voices chorus in the Northeastern District (NED) of the Barbershop Harmony Society. The group’s mission is to create a safe and welcoming space for SSAA singers of all gender identities to come together in a cappella harmony. VocaMotion has seen tremendous success since its formation in 2023, and is thrilled to be competing alongside Vocal Revolution at this summer’s BHS International Chorus Contest in St. Louis.
