A Different Kind of Poetry Call-In Show

Season 2 Poetry Poets Spoken Word
Unstoppable by Design is a play that explores the life of Matt Rifenburg who at times has been homeless, friendless, hungry, married to someone addicted to drugs, a clueless father trying to raise his son, and a man losing his job and being diagnosed with a brain tumor in the same week. Refusing to give up, he applies for a job at Cornell University. Will his determination to overcome be enough to convince the interviewers he is worthy of a design position in the particle physics lab despite dropping out of school at 15 and never returning or will this be the end of his journey?
