A beloved New York City raconteur, Ed Gavagan has captivated audiences with his rare blend of honesty, vulnerability and wit. Ed's voice resonated through the airwaves of The Moth Radio Hour and inspired minds on TEDMed and TEDx stages. Catherine Burns is a luminary in the storytelling world. For over two decades, she was the artistic force behind The Moth, that juggernaut of true tales told live on stage.
On the night before Thanksgiving in 1995, Ed was attacked and stabbed multiple times. The nightmare scenario began with a 10-inch blade plunging into his chest. Then came years of coping with the physical, financial, emotional and, finally, the spiritual damage he endured. His long and, at times, absurd journey was assisted by an improbable cast of New Yorkers. We invite you to be transported by a tale that will touch your heart, challenge your perspective and remind you that, even when the world seems without hope, resilience and grace sometimes matter the most.
Developed for the stage and directed by Catherine Burns.
