    • SUMMARY: “The Moth believes that everyone has a story. The Moth created StorySLAM to give those stories a forum. Following the wild success of our Mainstage series, The Moth sought to accommodate all the people who asked, “When can I tell my story?” and to encourage those people who doubted they had a story worth telling. The Moth StorySLAM provides a stage and a microphone, a theme to inspire and shape the evening, a lively and supportive audience, and a host to guide the festivities. Stories are limited to five minutes, and ten stories are heard. The stories are scored by three teams of audience-member judges, and a winner is announced at every SLAM.”

Find yourself transported from a salon caught between Victorian England and the Weimar Republic, to a Glam Rock Discotheque of 1980s-esque proportions, to the simple, yet emotional environs of revolutionary and socio-political defiance.”
