Dear San Fran Fans...

There's just no other way to say it. So here goes...

Mortified SF
needs dudes. Straight dudes. Gay dudes. Asexual Morrissey-type dudes. It really doesn't matter. We just need dudes.

While Mortified SF 's always-sold-out events are packed with both genders in the audience, we're a bit perplexed that (of all ALL cities) our SF show curiously lacks males on stage.

So this is our mighty cry to America's other city of brotherly love. Calling all dudes. Mortified needs more male performers in San Francisco.

If you have a penis and want to make lots of people laugh by reading aloud your actual childhood writings (journals, letters, lyrics, poety, schoolwork, etc) at a stage show that's been praised by the likes by The Onion, This American Life, Jane, SF Bay Examiner, LA Times, SF Weekly, Metro New York, Boston Globe, etc... this is your chance to take part in an utterly unique comedy experience.

Wanna learn about Mortified's unique casting process? Great. We'd love to hear your very worst!

Just visit: http://www.getmortified.com/audition.

Tell your friends. Share the shame.

Oh. And yes. We are still looking for any gender in any city. This is just a more specific APB. In short, if you got boobs or live elsewhere, we'd love to hear your stuff.

Thangst

So after almost four years of non-stop sold-out shows, our LA show (the original Mortified) is taking a long overdue summer vacation in the hopes of resting up and moreover, gathering NEW material. Hint hint: click audition suckas.

It's been a beyond amazing few years (in LA alone) and we're excited to continue growing our strange little-engine-that-could project. As such, we have a lot of cool projects in the works and can't wait to get to share them with you. Mortified is truly a labor of love for all involved and we (from producers to performers) work very hard to keep it fresh, funny, and fascinating. We hope it hits you that way.

I am constantly blown away by the amazing support our fans have shown us. Hell, the fact that we even 'have' an active following is quite surreal-- especially considering there's not much of a proven track record for this type of entertainment.

So on behalf of all-things-Mortified, I just want to say how appreciative I am. You guys rock. If I could, I'd totally dry hump each and everyone of you.

Thangst.

Dave
Sr. Mortified

PS: To our friends in LA, we'll see you in Fall. To everyone elsewhere, see you much sooner.
