The Moth NYC

...so you got that story that brings down the house every time you tell it? Why not tell it at The Moth, a weekly forum in New York City and Los Angeles where people gather and listen to each other tell tales or storyslams as they are formally referred to. People from all walks come through to non-for-profit organization's various Manhattan and Brooklyn venues...even celebrities. I heard Malcolm Gladwell was there. I heard Ethan Hawke was there. I heard Jonathan Ames was there. Heard Margaret Cho was there...ok imma stop now...

Here are the details on the slams straight from the site:
