Completely exhausted with the toxic digital landscape that permeates our every day, the residents of 5219 Webster look for a spiritual alternative. Thankfully, Brian and his faithful lieutenant Julie are here to help. Anyone who lives in Brian’s House is awake or awakening, while outside, the rest are asleep. The fearless leaders can protect their community from outside distractions, including FaceBook, Google, the IRS, Cambridge Analytica, magnetic strips, Fresh Grocer, or their families. As Julie always says, “you know you’re on the right path when some part of you wants to go back.”

A years-long exploration into cults and closed communities, Brian’s House is an ongoing journey to learn how we live with others.

Performance dates coming soon
