ABOUT THE MOTH

The Moth is dedicated to the art and craft of storytelling, and has presented more than three thousand stories, told live and without notes, by people from all walks of life to standing-room-only crowds worldwide.  Each show features simple, old-fashioned storytelling on thoroughly modern themes by wildly divergent raconteurs who develop and shape their stories with The Moth's directors.  The Peabody Award-winning The Moth Radio Hour was launched in 2009 and is carried by stations (including KCRW) across the country. Visit themoth.org for more information.

With its legendary Hollywood & Vine location, this nearly 100-year old historical Spanish colonial theater, The Avalon Hollywood has hosted some of the most publicized and diverse events in Los Angeles.
