Event Info

Join us for Brothers in Arms, a work-in-process performance by 2022/23 BRIClab Performing Arts residents James Clements and John Maria Gutierrez.

Brothers in Arms is an interview-based devised play combining movement, music, video, and text. It aims to interrogate toxic masculinity and facilitate emotion transformation amongst male-identifying and masc folks. Alongside the presentation, there is an applied theatre component, where participants use the play’s framework to facilitate personal exploration of the themes.
