Stories from the Stage

Never the Same | Preview

We are defined by turning points, choosing a path where nothing is ever the same again. Natasha and her team fights to bring Sesame Street to a newly democratic Russia; Johanne reconnects with her late father’s friend to navigate the end of life; and Dave decides to become a pro basketball player, despite talent. Three storytellers, three interpretations of NEVER THE SAME, hosted by Wes Hazard.
