By definition, a Fringe Festival is a non-profit organization of performers, producers, and managers dedicated to providing local, national, and international emerging artists a non-juried opportunity to present new works to arts-friendly audiences. All Fringe Festivals are committed to a common philosophy that promotes accessible, inexpensive, and fun performing arts attendance. For the purposes of this study, qualitative research methods, supported by action research and combined with fieldwork and participant observations, will be used to investigate, describe, and document what Fringe Festivals are all about.

  • SHOW TICKETS at Or Our EXIT Theatre Mobile App! a Note from Our Founder First, Thank You, for Supporting the San Francisco Fringe Festival
    SHOW TICKETS AT www.sffringe.org or our EXIT Theatre mobile app! A note from our Founder First, Thank You, for supporting the San Francisco Fringe Festival. EXIT Theatre is very proud and grateful to have had the opportunity for the past 27 years to support indie artists in this unique way. As a CAFF member festival, the SF Fringe is an open access event where our performing companies are chosen by lottery. This sometimes surprises people but it works, and a tremendous amount of new and relevant work comes out of the SF Fringe as well as many Bay Area pro- ducing groups who are cornerstones in the indie performing arts culture. We are also proud to say that we return 100% of the ticket price to the Fringe performing companies, which means that indie artists are able to earn money to continue to create their work. So please be sure to see as many shows as possible and help indie arts thrive and survive. Of course this would not be possible without the continued support of our dedicated volunteers, staff, funders, and audience. If you’ve been to an SF Fringe before you’re already familiar with our Tip The Fringe campaign. This is one of the ways we are able to continue to keep the festival going each year, so please be generous and donate what you can. And remember the SF Fringe is just one of the many different events that are on the EXIT stages year round. Come back and be a part of this vibrant, creative and important community, and check us out through- out the year at www.theexit.org Live performance is all about the human connection, realizing we are one together.

Chris Wesselman, Associate Producer of Cincy ​ ​ Fringe, says, “It’s a blissful marathon, pouring through so many wonderful, thought­provoking and laugh­inducing applications; final choices are always tough because you want to see them all brought to life. Every year the passion and ingenuity brought to us by these artists further ​ cements the fact that Fringe is the place to find modern theatre’s true pioneers.” This year the Cincy Fringe Selection Jury, which adjudicates all submissions for the Primary ​ ​ Lineup (including FringeNext), was increased to a whopping thirty jurors in order to further ​ ​ expand feedback and ensure a lineup that is as diverse and varied in themes and disciplines as possible.

  • Primus Theatre: Establishing an Alternative Model
    PRIMUS THEATRE: ESTABLISHING AN ALTERNATIVE MODEL FOR CREATING THEATRE IN ENGLISH CANADA by Claire Borody A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Centre for Study of Drama University of Toronto Copyright © by Claire Borody 2009 Abstract Primus Theatre: Establishing an Alternative Model for Creating Theatre in English Canada Claire Borody Doctor of Philosophy 2009 Graduate Centre for Study of Drama University of Toronto This study of Primus Theatre is evidence of many things. First and foremost it is a long overdue print recognition of Primus Theatre’s substantial artistic accomplishments and its important contribution to the development of theatre-making in English-speaking Canada. In examining the various factors contributing to the founding of the theatre and the extremely challenging conditions in which company members functioned over the years, it remains truly remarkable that Primus Theatre existed at all. Three central determinations emerge from the examination of Primus Theatre’s practice. The theatre truly was a pioneering venture in English Canada. Company members established an “as-if-permanent” ensemble that engaged in the creation of original performance work drawn from research that emerged from their regular training practice. The company adopted a theatre-making practice generated by the Odin Theatre in Denmark and then adapted it to vastly different cultural and fiscal contexts. It can also be determined that the origins of the company are inextricably bound to Richard Fowler’s personal artistic journey.
