Recent federal budget cuts may affect employment services in many parts of New Hampshire. We'll talk with the Department of Employment Security Commissioner Richard Brothers about the state's response, and get a broader picture of the issue from UNH Economist Ross Gittell.

And we'll talk with Concord playwright Paul Hodes about his new opera about the life of Oscar Wilde. Paul collaborated with Boston composer Thomas Oboe Lee on the opera which is still in production and will be performed this weekend.

TONIGHT'S SONG: "The Start of Something", by the Austin band Voxtrot. Their debut EP is called Raised By Wolves.
