Directed by Liz Frances, the program features six short plays by local writers Peter Mitsopoulos, Victor Lang, Mark Holley, Laura Vines, Scooter, and Janiece Jordan. While the playwrights share a background of military service, the stories themselves span a wide range of themes, styles, and experiences.
The evening will conclude with a conversation with the artists, offering audiences a chance to engage more deeply with the work and creating space for dialogue, reflection, and connection.

Join us for a special screening of Everything Everywhere All at Once in honor of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Month as part of OTC at the Brooks’ Arts Unite series. This film is a surrealist sci-fi action-comedy directed by The Daniels, that follows Evelyn Wang (Michelle Yeoh), a stressed, exhausted Chinese-American immigrant. While undergoing an IRS audit, she discovers she must connect with parallel universe counterparts to stop a multiversal threat, ultimately exploring themes of nihilism, family, and generational trauma. Through film and community gathering, Arts Unite celebrates underrepresented voices and the transformative power of the arts to foster connection, reflection, and unity. Rated R.
