Tough Choices
stories from the stage

What do you do when you think nobody is watching? Tales of tough choices, letting go, and embracing change. Jobless and broke, Simon Muchohi debates whether he should exchange some much needed extra change for good karma; Bart Thompson discovers that your lowest point can also be a turning point; and looking for her forever match, Jessica Robinson learns that real love means knowing when to let go. Three storytellers, three interpretations of Tough Choices, hosted by Theresa Okokon.
