And in the summer, all of western Massachusetts a stage. 

We have the opportunity to meet a few of the thespians creating and developing works in the area. 

There's a single performer show written and performed by Jay Sefton, that deals with a difficult subject with humanity and humor. "Unreconciled"  The play chronicles a survivor’s journey as he confronts his past and discovers the courage to use his voice and redefine what reconciliation means, and we talk with Jay, as well as NEPM Reporter Nancy Cohen who has both covered the previous production and participated in post-show talkbacks on the subject matter, about what this version of the show is bringing to the Chester Theater. 

Then we head to North Adams to immerse ourselves in an emerging theater project that takes a pair of people through the exhibits at Mass MoCA. "Where I end & You Begin" is the latest work of Eggtooth Productions. It's been intermittently offered at the museum throughout the year, so we take a quick break to experience it ourselves and speak with creators John Becktold and Ali Ross about the many connections they and the folx signing up to participate have discovered. 

And Mr. Universe, Salman Hameed builds up our hopes for cosmic migration with information about the lego brick inspired ideas for modular housing and buildings in space.
