Local theater making an impact: drawing attention to child sexual abuse, and celebrating America’s history

Theater has the power to move people to make change, and Jay Sefton is hoping to draw on that with his one-man play, “Unreconciled,” which tells his story of being sexually assaulted by a parish priest as a 13-year-old. The play is touring Pennsylvania ahead of potential action in the State Senate on two bills that would revise the state’s statute of limitations for survivors of childhood sexual abuse. Racquel Williams talks with Sefton and Rep. Nate Davidson, who introduced the legislation. 

Then, Shara Dae Howard gets a backstage tour of the Walnut Street Theatre, hailed as America's oldest theatre. Their upcoming production of the musical “1776” looks back at the signing of the Declaration of Independence, right before its 250th anniversary.
