"The Moth" On Tour Story aired: Monday, April 23, 2007
Remember when folks would gather round and just tell stories? "Bowling Alone" author Robert Putnam wrote about the loss of that kind of intimacy. Well, he would be pleased with "Stories at the Moth," a storytelling showcase where people tell their unscripted tales in 12 minutes or so.
It started in New York, spread to LA and is now on tour nationally.
We speak to Catherine Burns, artistic director of "The Moth."
