OT

About
OT is a moving, ensemble-driven play set in a South Side Chicago hospital on Christmas Day. As the holiday approaches, staff members navigate long shifts, limited resources, and the quiet sacrifices that come with caring for others while the rest of the city celebrates. For many, the hospital is not just a workplace—it is a second home, held together by shared jokes, late-night meals, and an unspoken commitment to one another.
