Leeds’ very own Akeim Toussaint Buck presents Free, a joyful, immersive dance show that celebrates Reggae and its radical history.

This powerful performance is a quest to challenge the confines of borders, flags and occupied lands, to find joy in the darkest hour.

Nyabinghi rhythms vibrate, jazz influences unfold and vivid storytelling underpins this high energy dance show.

With original dub music, you’re invited to gather, skank and lively up yourself, until we’re all free.

Performances at Transform 25 co-presented by Transform and Leeds School of Arts.

Co-commissioned by Sadler’s Wells, Transform and ARC Stockton (via The Make New Work Programme, supported by The Paul Hamlyn Foundation) and funded via Arts Council England’s National Lottery Project Grants.
