In 1984, he opened KAOS Network, the media arts hub that has helped steward Leimert Park Village’s traditions of Black artistry, fellowship, and love for over four decades.

Over the course of the 1980s and 1990s, the Hollywatts Posse was at the forefront of Los Angeles’s experimental performing arts scene, producing theatrical performances that pushed the bounds of dramatic arts, connected different segments of the city, and were radically Black and diasporic in tone and subject matter. Join us as this posse of interdisciplinary artists—composed of Mark Broyard, Ben Caldwell, Wesley Groves, Roger Guenveur Smith, and Vernon “King Oji” Vanoy—comes back together with a special multimedia performance centering Black history and struggle.
