The Mainstage is the quintessential Moth experience. A two-act show live in Los Angeles, featuring Jasminfire on acoustic violin and viola as the musical act for 2023 and 2024, storytellers and a notable host share true personal stories, without notes. Topics range from all areas of life as they're recorded for episodes of The Moth Podcast and Moth Radio Hour, regularly debuted on KCRW and NPR Radio.

Although no video is captured at these live events, a sample recording of one of the performed songs, Lajuana Beach, written for viola, can be found here.
