Fringe Review: “Phone Whore”, Another 5 Star Performance! (Toronto Fringe, July 2010)
So you know the title and you’ve read the description, so it won’t be a surprise to you when you go see the show that the language and phone scenarios are sexually explicit. What may surprise you is the strength of the writing and the polished acting: no basic sex ad chatter that you find in the classifieds, and no fake, over the top, cutesie acting. What you get in Phone Whore is honesty and a script that questions society’s standards, taboos and hypocrisy in relation to sex and sexual fantasies.
