The Moth Mainstage turns personal experience into a shared night of listening, with storytellers speaking without notes under the theme Tightrope. Risks, uncertain choices and moments of courage give the program its through-line, while each teller brings a different life to the microphone. This Paramount-presented event takes place at the AISD Performing Arts Center, not the downtown theatre. Doors open at 6 p.m.; alcohol is not served, and concessions must stay in the lobby.
