For the Festival, five writers will be joined by professional actors and production teams who help bring their vision to life; all eight of the playwrights will participate in events as part of the OPC artist community.

Schedule of Events:

7:30pm - Heléne by Lisa D’Amour

Two years after the murder of her daughter, Heléne is called to take a road trip by her daughter's ghost. As she drives from her home near Baton Rouge, LA to Brooklyn, New York, Heléne arcs through the many siloed communities of America seeking answers, renewal, and new ground. As her ghost daughter pushes her deeper into our fraught American hellscape, Heléne renews her own sense of agency and her fierce determination to LOVE.
