Food for Thought
stories from the stage

Day by day, meal by meal, food becomes a part of who we are. Jo Radner's mother astonishes her family by baking a pie for dinner; Gauri Gupta rises above a low point to discover new opportunities through baking; and after the death of his father, David Filipov goes to Afghanistan where a simple Pop-Tart takes on a whole new meaning. Three storytellers, three interpretations of FOOD FOR THOUGHT, hosted by Theresa Okokon.

Episode Duration: 26 minutes and 40 seconds

Episode Number: 213
