Tempest Productions Invites You to Participate in it's Oh Freedom Project

The Oh Freedom Project is a multi-media, multi-generational performing arts piece using poetry, drama, song, and dance that explores concepts of freedom and what freedom means to you. This piece will be shared throughout our Hudson County communities.

You are invited to participate in any or all of the 3 workshops that will be offered at the Secaucus Library. No previous writing/acting experience is necessary. The days and times of the workshops to be determined.

In these workshops:

We will look at questions of what freedom means to our communities. What is freedom? Are we a free society? What does freedom look like in your life? How do you define equality and equity? How can we work together to ensure rights for all? And what rights should we be fighting for?

First, we brainstorm and discuss. Next, we share experiences, and then we look to various mediums to bring those stories and ideas to life. Personal Essays, Belief Statements, Songs, Scripts, and Poetry will be some of the forms we play with.

All who are interested in exploring this topic are most welcome. We want people of all ages, backgrounds, and experiences. How can your voice be heard?

This program is made possible by a grant from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts, a division of the Department of State, and administered by the Hudson County Office of Cultural & Heritage Affairs, Thomas A. DeGise, Hudson County Executive & the Hudson County Board of County Commissioners.
