What happens when stories are not just told, but lived, embodied, and shared in real time? In this episode of Therapists’ Take, we explore the unique healing power of the stage and live performance with Jim Perkin, founder of Bedford Theatre and longtime community arts leader. While Jim is not a mental health professional, his decades of experience in ministry and community theatre offer a grounded, accessible perspective on how performance creates connection, meaning, and transformation.

From the vulnerability of live performance to the communal ritual of gathering to witness a story, this conversation highlights how shared creative experiences can foster reflection, resilience, and hope.
