Event Info

The Moth is true stories, told live and without notes, by people from all walks of life – astronauts, students, a dental hygienist, a hotdog eating champion, exonerated prisoners, Nobel laureates, and everyone in between. Each performance of The Moth Mainstage is unique, illuminating the diversity and commonality of human experiences.

For ONE night, five seasoned storytellers will share extraordinary, true stories that dig deep into the idea of the American Dream.

Does it even exist anymore? FOR WHO? What happens when the dream rubs up against reality? What happens when it’s dashed or deferred? And what happens when the dream comes true?

Come together, sit shoulder to shoulder, and listen to people sharing hilarious, moving, illuminating, astounding stories of their very own American Dreams.
