The Moth

This Spring, globally beloved storytelling institution, The Moth, is bringing its Mainstage show to Lincoln.

For ONE night, five seasoned storytellers will share extraordinary, true stories that dig deep into the idea of the American Dream.

Does it even exist anymore? FOR WHO? What happens when the dream rubs up against reality? What happens when it’s dashed or deferred? And what happens when the dream comes true?

Come together, sit shoulder to shoulder, and listen to people sharing hilarious, moving, illuminating, astounding stories of their very own American Dreams.

TRUE STORIES, TOLD LIVE.

Hailed as “New York’s hottest and hippest literary ticket” by The Wall Street Journal, The Moth brings the power of personal storytelling to millions of people each year. In its 25-year history, The Moth has presented more than 50,000 stories, told live and without notes, by people from all walks of life to standing-room-only crowds worldwide.
