While it’s a pretty bold statement to call something The Biggest Show, this benefit for Young Storytellers might actually get into some superlative territory.

Seth Rogen, Jordan Peele, Nasim Pedrad, Tony Hale, Thomas Middleditch, Natasha Rothwell, Charlie Day, John Cho, Yvonne Orji, Martin Starr, Danny Pudi, Busy Phillips, Max Greenfield, Georgia King, Kimberly Herbert Gregory, and hosts The Sklar Brothers will all perform scripts written by 5th graders for this Biggest Show.

Proceeds go to Young Storytellers, which is a non-profit that connects film and TV professionals with public school students in order to foster their own short screenplay.

The Biggest Show 2016 is set for next week on Thursday, October 20th at 8PM at The Novo DTLA in LA Live. Tickets for standing room are available for $25 and you can (and should) get them here.
