What makes someone leap without looking? What drives a person to risk everything? Tonight, The Moth is diving deep into the moments that define us—the split-second decisions, the life-changing gambles, the quiet acts of rebellion that reshape everything.

In tonight's Moth Mainstage, five storytellers will tell true and personal stories that challenge what it means to be daring. The evening will also feature long-time Moth host (and Jersey native!), Peter Aguero, as well as music from Brandon Mejia.
