On Friday, April 14 at 8 p.m., McCarter Theatre presents The Moth, a storytelling experience that celebrates the ability to tell true, personal stories in front of a live audience in an effort to better understand the gift of shared humanity.

The Moth’s work allows people from all walks of life and all parts of the world to see that we are not so different from one another. Whether it’s an astronaut, a dental hygienist, a hot dog eating champion, a high school student, a mechanic, or an exonerated prisoner, we all have something to teach and share with one another.
