Toasted

Tickets and Information

PS NBC at HERE presents this staged reading written by Elisa DeCarlo. In March 1998, Larry Froistad confessed to the arson murder of his five year old daughter Amanda. He confessed online, to an Internet support group. Of the over 200 people who received this confession, only three went to the authorities. Ms. DeCarlo was one of those three people. The case made international headlines, including the NY Times, San Francisco Chronicle, and the LA Times. Elisa was later drummed out of the support group as a traitor after Larry was sentenced to 40 years in prison. Woven both from Elisa's storytelling and many of the actual e-mails involved, Toasted is more than just a rehashing of the case. It is also the story of one woman?s journey down the rabbit hole of online intimacy, relative morality, and instant, albeit brief, media stardom.
