Moses Storm

**What if you were raised in an unsuccessful doomsday cult?**
That happens to be a reality for comedian Moses Storm. What would have made Moses’s family’s cult or any cult “successful”? What does success actually mean? That is the question that Moses hopes to answer with PERFECT CULT.
PERFECT CULT is a unique, interactive comedy special that invites audience members to participate in the formation of a one-night-only cult. This immersive show is ‘Sleep No More’ meets stand-up comedy.
Each night, after opening up about his own hilarious and heartbreaking cult experience, Moses interviews a guest comedian or audience member about their religious background. He asks them about the parts of their religions that they identify with, don’t identify with, parts that have helped them, and the parts they find just plain weird.
If the interviewees aren’t religious – that’s fine too. Every person has groups that they identify with and follow blindly – whether it’s sports teams, bitcoin bros, company affiliations, CrossFit, healing crystals or airlines of choice, everyone is inevitably going to be a devoted member of something.
Throughout the show, Moses builds out a list of attributes of the night’s Perfect Cult. The crowd is invited to participate in on-the-spot rituals, chants, and ceremonies, all initiated from the night’s interviews. A ‘greatest hits’ of religious tenets, if you will. At the end of the show, Moses invites the audience to officially join his cult. Every audience member is invited to participate in a final, head-turning group ritual, ready to spread the cult’s teachings to the world.
The Perfect Cult will be a guaranteed-buzzy, word-of-mouth-driven spectacle that celebrates and pokes fun at people of all tribes and affiliations. At the very least, it’s an incredible WTF photo op for bystanders.

Moses Storm is a comedian, writer, director and actor. As a stand up comedian, his debut one-hour comedy special TRASH WHITE was released in 2022 on HBOMax. The highconcept special that mixes multimedia and deeply personal stories about growing up well below the poverty line is produced by Conan O’Brien. Storm has appeared numerous times on CONAN as a guest and a performer and previously hosted Conan’s live variety show “Team Coco’s Up & Up” in Los Angeles. In 2018, he joined Conan on his multi-city tour, “Team Coco Presents Conan & Friends.” Storm regularly tours comedy clubs around the country, where he works with an inspiring amount of ambition to create unconventional interactive entertainment. As an actor, Storm most recently led the 2024 Universal stoner comedy HALF BAKED: TOTALLY HIGH. In 2022, Storm starred in the ABC Signature/Freeform half-hour comedy series EVERYTHING’S TRASH from Phoebe Robinson and the CBS TV/Paramount+ series PLAYERS, from the same team as AMERICAN VANDAL. Previously, he was a series regular on the NBC comedy SUNNYSIDE, from Mike Schur and Kal Penn. You may have also seen him recurring in I’M DYING UP HERE on Showtime, ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT for Netflix, and THIS IS US on NBC. Storm is also featured in the HULU original movie PLAN B, directed by Natalie Morales, as well as the Netflix romantic comedy THE LOVEBIRDS, alongside Kumail Nanjiani and Issa Rae. Additional film credits include the 2015 high-concept Universal horror film UNFRIENDED, the Adam Sandler Netflix film FATHER OF THE YEAR, and Justin Simien’s satirical thriller BAD HAIR. Online, Storm has found viral success with his docu-comedy videos which he writes, directs and stars in. In an effort to highlight excessively indulgent LA parties, Storm created TERMINALLY CHILL, a video in which he held the most exclusive and expensive birthday party at the LAX Chilis, located just beyond TSA, forcing guests to purchase a one-way airline ticket to attend the event. In #MODERNMILLENNIAL, a satirical take on crowdfunding abuse, Storm put his life on display by living in an art exhibit that was open to the public 24/7. The exhibit was fully supported by crowdfunding. In ICE TO ICELAND, produced by Comedy Central, Storm highlighted fake social media activism by transporting six thousand tons of ice to Iceland to “fix” global warming.
