Featuring aliens, faraway worlds, and one man's search for meaning, “Man In Space" is a journey that takes place both out across the stars and inward into oneself. An intimate, immersive journey taken together by the listener and protagonist. Best experienced on a nighttime stroll, a long car ride, or alone in the dark. Let our show transport you.
