Rev Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping Choir are legendary for turning protest into theater and theater into ecstatic communal experience. Blending music, satire, spectacle, and fearless truth-telling, Reverend Billy and Savitri D deliver a performance that is funny, subversive, uplifting, and impossible to ignore. They bring fresh songs and performances along with a 15-minute comical and deadly serious sermon by Bill Talen as the energetic, charismatic revivalist preacher Reverend Billy. Each show is different but all are motivated by a profound imperative: to strengthen individual connection to the Earth, to develop pathways to social change and to hold financial institutions and policy makers accountable for their role in the Climate Crisis.

The performance is part of a new series organized by the Irvington Green Team: Chaos & Catharsis: Meaning, Music and Movement for These Uncertain Times. C&C is a live series that helps people make sense of a world in crisis through conversation, community, music, and embodied experience. Designed to be both thought-provoking and connective, each event invites audiences not only to engage with urgent ideas, but also to connect with community, breath and sing together. Rev Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping Choir are a natural fit, bringing bold performance, sharp cultural critique, and contagious collective energy to an evening built around meaning, coherence and resonance.
