In this first episode of Season Five, we revisit the stories that started it all: a mime who contracted COVID before doctors knew what it was, a Chicago blues singer who found a new way to perform, a trauma therapist who discovered the healing power of shared stories, and an arts administrator who had to rebuild from the ground up.

We also reflect on how the events of 2020, from the pandemic to the racial reckoning, are still impacting the performing arts world – along with updates from some featured storytellers.
