🎭 Up in Arms Collective presents RESPONSE 5
We’re back! After months of relentless chaos, Up in Arms Collective is raising our voices again with RESPONSE 5 — three nights of original, in-your-face works by dancers, actors, drag queens, filmmakers, musicians, and visual artists. Together, we’ll confront today’s America with humor, grief, bewilderment, and hope.
Born in 2016 as a space for artists to respond to the times, Up in Arms has always believed art can spark resistance, fuel persistence, and transform the world. This fall, over a dozen artists unite to speak truth, make noise, and create connection when it’s needed most.
