The Moth presents the GrandSLAM, a battle of wits and words - fierce, hilarious, heartbreaking and all points between. Listen as ten StorySLAM champs tell tales of temperatures crackling, tickling the dragon, turning steam into water or blowing the lid off ( toot -toot)! "When the water is boiling it is foolish to turn off the heat."--Nelson Mandela. The Moth is dedicated to finding intriguing people to tell inspired stories. At The Moth StorySLAM, those people find us. On this night, using words as weapons, they compete to determine The Moth's Boston GrandSLAM Story Champion.
