You can find all sorts of interesting things on craigslist.org. Several years ago, we were in need of fresh new faces and talent for the live musical comedy show we used to to in nighclubs here in Chicago.
I put an ad in craigslist that read “Rejected by American Idol? Humiliated by your peers? The Feast of Fools wants YOU. Bring us your geeks, your misfits, your outcasts, your oddballs. We want big chested, bold women to sing, crack jokes, collaborate and dance in our musical variety shows.” Amanda Steinstein walked in the door and it was love at first sight.
Today Amanda shares with us her latest craigslist discovery, comedy/erotic writer Polly Frost.
Polly Frost says she and her husband are a boring, everyday couple- except they together they write erotica that gives even Ron Jeremy a boner (he even said so). Their comedy soap opera, “Sex Scenes” is creating another kind of sensation in staged readings around the country, and on Wednesday, March 21, our own Amanda Steinstein will appear in the Chicago performance.
Listen to Amanda and her mom Fannie talk to Polly about her boner-iffic scripts, her views on erotica, and all things “Polly-amorous.”
