In April 2009 we performed an episode of This American Life onstage, and sent it live in HD to 430 movie theaters.

In late 2009, the staff of This American Life went on stage to talk for the first time as a group about how the show is put together.

On May 10 2012, we took everything we learned from putting on the 2009 live show and made it even more incredible.

Our most ambitious show ever, with a cast of nearly 50 singers, actors, dancers and musicians, recorded live onstage.

Comedian Mike Birbiglia wrote, directed and stars in this film co-written by Ira Glass and co-produced by This American Life.
