The Moth

TRUE STORIES, TOLD LIVE.

Hailed as “New York’s hottest and hippest literary ticket” by The Wall Street Journal, The Moth brings the power of personal storytelling to millions of people each year. In its 25-year history, The Moth has presented more than 50,000 stories, told live and without notes, by people from all walks of life to standing-room-only crowds worldwide. The Moth Podcast is downloaded more than 100 million times a year, and The Peabody Award-winning The Moth Radio Hour airs weekly on more than 575 public radio stations nationwide.

The Mainstage is the quintessential Moth experience, a two-act show where the storytellers and a notable host share true personal stories, without notes. Experience true stories live as they’re recorded for future episodes of The Moth Podcast and Moth Radio Hour.
