The Moth Mainstage

The Moth is true stories, told live and without notes. We celebrate the ability of
true, personal storytelling to illuminate both the diversity and commonality of
human experience. Our work allows people all over the world and from all walks
of life: astronauts, students, a dental hygienist, a hotdog eating champion, a
mechanic, exonerated prisoners, veterans, Nobel laureates and everyone in
between, to share their stories on stage in front of a live audience. Through live
and virtual shows, storytelling workshops, a podcast, Peabody Award-winning
Radio Hour, and New York Times Best Selling books, The Moth brings the power
of personal storytelling to millions of people each year—creating community
and building empathy around the world.

The Moth Mainstage is the quintessential Moth experience, a two-act show where five tellers and a notable host share true personal stories, without notes.
