Phone Whore is the kind of wondrous theatre work that forces you to face not just your own limits, but also what the limits are for text, performance and - let me say it - theatre itself. Go. (Charlebois Post)
“[It’s] the most intimate and insightful theatre experience you’re likely to have, in more ways than one.” (roverarts.com)
“I haven’t been shaken by a piece of theatre like this for quite a while.” (audience member, Ottawa Fringe 2010)
“...a running confessional, a series of anecdotes that add up to a powerful whole.” (Fast Forward Weekly, Calgary)
A slice-of-life comedy/drama, Phone Whore won the award for Best Female Solo show at the 2010 San Francisco Fringe Festival, and was selected Pick of the Fringe – Drama at the 2011 Victoria Fringe Festival. The play invites audiences in for an unflinching look at taboo, fantasy, and the place of “deviant” desires in society today. Boston-based playwright and performer Cameryn Moore draws extensively on her work experiences at a no-taboo service to flesh out both the absurdities and difficult truths that pervade the world of phone sex.

Cameryn is the creator and host of Smut Slam, an touring open mic storytelling event featuring real-life, first-person sex stories. When she is not performing, writing, or getting men off over the phone, you can often find Cameryn and her sidewalk Smut tand in some busy nightclub district, pounding out custom erotica for passersby. Cameryn is frequently NSFW on Facebook; you can also keep up with her at www.camerynmoore.com or www.slutrevolution.com
