About The Show
It's become an online tradition to succumb to the cult of Craigslist, the website founded by Craig Newmark that provides "local classifieds and forums for communities worldwide - a place to find jobs, housing, goods & services, social activities, a girlfriend or boyfriend, information, advice, and just about anything else-all for free, and in a non-commercial environment."

"Just about anything else" is where monologist Philip Galinsky enters the picture. He has adapted the more outré Craigslist ads, everything from gym memberships to erotic services, for theatrical purposes. The results are classifiably hilarious.

Maybe your "missed connection" will be at the show!
