Can’t make it? Call our voicemail art project, 312-DRY-TOFU (312-379-8638), to contribute via the phone. We will play your audio contribution on stage. To be considered for this month’s show, you must call before October 23rd.
Think! Found Magazine meets J&C Letters to the Editor. The two of them go trick or treating as the Pedestrian Bridge and the Wabash River. Each receive a tremendous amount of candy, stickers, and other household items. Upon returning home, they examine their loot and find a letter. The writer tells them the location of a secret trunk full of valuables and photographs. They quickly head out into the night. They enter Happy Hollow Park after dusk and…AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Here is another installment of the free-form question, comment and improvisational voicemail art project, 312-DRY-TOFU (312-379-8638). Give us a call to share your perspective on anything and everything! Tell us about your day, improvise a monologue about a local event, or sing us a song. If it can be captured on the phone, we want to hear it.
In this episode we hear the story of a magical transformation that occurred while grooming one’s nose, the mumbling tales of a fishing trip, a lost and found thank you, the discovery of a card that foretells the future, and a monologue about neighbor associations being born.
Please join us for the next episode by calling and contributing to 312-DRY-TOFU (312-379-8638)!

The next Knickerbocker Write Club will take place on Monday, November 28th.
We are focusing on our families around the holidays by asking writers to bring in poetry, stories, or other narratives that surround this special familial time of year.
Add yourself to the pool of Write Club Battle Contenders or become a member of our mailing list! Please sign-up here.
If you can’t make it, call our voicemail art line, 312-DRY-TOFU (312-379-8638), day or night and contribute a tale about the holiday madness. Pass the phone around, get your grandmother to spin a yarn about yesteryear, or share your Thanksgiving Day toast. Any audio is accepted and will be used in our netcast.
We are always looking for artists, satirists, playwrights, poets, actresses, short story writers, actors, novelists, extemporaneous creators, instrumental musicians, comedians, audience members, and anyone else who loves creativity!
If you would like to get involved, please contact us.
Winter is upon us. Fall is coming to an end. Don’t forget about the sad snow birds among us. Reach out and call a friend.
