Episode 282: The Suffering of an Entertainer with Frankie Anne
Frankie Anne is a multi-talented performer and stand-up comic, opening for comedy greats such as Mike Marino, Craig Shoemaker, Dana Eagle and more. With a diverse career that spans producing and directing shows featuring icons like Tom Bergeron (DWTS), Dee Wallace (ET), and Sam Tripoli, Frankie has also produced Showtime's Live Nude Comedy, which included Whitney Cummings, Chris D’Elia, and Tig Notaro. A former lead vocalist for Big Brother and the Holding Company, Frankie’s stage presence was shaped by her Broadway tours of West Side Story and Smokey Joe’s Café, and performing with Barbra Streisand on her Timeless tour. Her TV credits include Sunset Beach and Strong Medicine, and she co-produced and starred in the comedy film Artie, alongside Heather McComb (Ray Donovan), Kevin Farley (The Waterboy), and Dee Wallace. Her stand-up blends Jersey grit with Hollywood survival, riffing on everything from dating disasters to life after being a Chief Operations Officer, all with her uniquely bold comedic style.
