Bedford separates by when the Boston commute became your life. Meetinghouse Square rooms fill with families who remember farmland, while Town Center hosts the professionals who arrived with the highway expansion. North End draws the newer developments. East Bedford and South Bedford operate in their own bubbles. The comedy here navigates populations that share a town but experience different relationships to the city next door. Open mics become neutral ground where old Bedford and commuter Bedford sit together. The comics who honor both find audiences grateful someone saw the distinction.
