Second Act: Season 2 starts Wednesday October 7. Meetings are every Wednesday at 6:00 at both Outermost Performing Arts Center in Wellfleet and over Zoom. For more information and the Zoom link, email us at secondact@what.org.

Second Act is a unique, community-based recovery program, created by recovery coach Dana Demers in collaboration with Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater / Outermost Performing Arts Center, that harnesses the transformative power of theater to support individuals healing from substance use disorders.

Working with professional theater artists and certified recovery coaches, participants will learn to share their recovery journeys in an open and supportive setting, while crafting them into monologues or short plays. Every session is a step towards confidence, community, connection and hope. The program culminates in a public performance that aims to reduce stigma, build community, and showcase the power of creativity in recovery.

This program is funded in part by the Opioid Remediation Settlement Funds. Programs are contracted by the four Outer Cape towns’ health departments known as OC Wellness Collaborative and coordinated by Outer Cape Community Solutions Rural Health Network. by @what_org

The Narrow Land examines both the mythology and reality of Cape Cod, seeking to unravel the difficult questions that face the coastal community today as it confronts a barrage of overtourism and a subsequent housing crisis that has left locals scrambling to keep their feet planted in the sand. Weaving a personal chronicle of childhood on Cape Cod with the voices of local artists, fishermen, and hospitality workers, the film channels the eerie realities of small town America, posing new questions about identity and memory.

Following her acclaimed 2024 company debut in Puccini’s Madama Butterfly, soprano Asmik Grigorian returns to the Met as Tatiana, the lovestruck young heroine in this ardent operatic adaptation of Pushkin, which will be transmitted live from the Metropolitan Opera stage to WHAT on May 2. Baritone Iurii Samoilov is the urbane Onegin, who realizes his affection for her all too late. The Met’s evocative production, directed by Tony Award–winner Deborah Warner, “offers a beautifully detailed reading of … Tchaikovsky’s lyrical romance” (The Telegraph). This live cinema transmission is part of the Met’s award-winning Live in HD series.
