Experience a new chapter in the art of live storytelling
Excerpts from Ed Gavagan's one-man show LoudMemory
Adapted for the stage and directed by Catherine Burns
Ed's nightmare scenario began on the night before Thanksgiving when an attacker plunged a 10-inch blade into his chest. The ensuing physical, financial and spiritual damage he endured shattered his sense of self and destroyed the life he'd built. Witness this tale of indomitable physical and mental resilience; an epic saga told with humor, a keen eye for detail and a sardonic appreciation for the vagaries of life in New York City.
A beloved raconteur, Ed has captivated audiences with his rare blend of honesty, vulnerability and wit. His voice resonated over the airwaves of The Moth Radio Hour and inspired audiences both online and in person through his TED talks.
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.
