Stories from the Stage: On Second Thought

Thursday, April 16, 2026

06:30 PM - 09:15 PM

GBH Studios

1 Guest Street, Boston, MA, USA

Stories from the Stage invites you to our home (studio) for a night of true stories that make you stop and think. Ever been so sure of something….until you weren’t? Maybe you walked away from a “perfect” plan, reconnected with someone from the past, or realized what you were chasing wasn’t really worth it. On April 16 guests will hear true, first-person stories about reversals, redirections, and revelations. Whether it was a small shift, or a life-altering pivot, hear true tales that made people think twice. From the moments that saved a life, to occasions a person regrets for the rest of their life. Storytellers will share their unbelievable accounts with you.

At Stories from the Stage, produced by GBH WORLD, ordinary people share extraordinary experiences that you will not soon forget. In each taping, we get up-close and personal with storytellers about what inspires them and the craft of storytelling.
