Beloved storytelling nonprofit The Moth –its popular Moth Radio Hour is heard on 450+ public radio stations nationwide and podcast is downloaded 44 million times a year-- will present its first-ever Mainstage in Baltimore on Saturday, May 6th at the Baltimore Center Stage.

Hosted by CJ Hunt, a favorite on The Moth stage, the two-hour Baltimore show will feature five storytellers—including David Litt, R. Eric Thomas, and Jessica Lee Williamson—sharing true personal stories on the same theme. Doors open at 7PM; stories begin at 7:30PM.

The Moth presents true, personal stories by luminaries in the arts and sciences, as well as an astronaut, an undertaker, a voodoo priestess and a retired NYPD detective, among many others. Each show is composed of simple, old-fashioned storytelling on thoroughly modern themes, by wildly divergent raconteurs; every story is told live on stage, without notes.
