How Philly's 'Theatre in the X' Removes Boundaries

Now, they’re teaming up with Painted Bride, a long-running performance space, for their 10-year anniversary. Host Trenae Nuri chats with our City Cast Philly arts and culture contributor, Charles Tyson, Jr., about the creativity and importance of this West Philly theater company.
