FringeDevelopment

The Cincinnati Fringe Festival was created to give artists an outlet for their work - now we're working to take that idea to the next level with FringeDevelopment. The work you see on stage during the Fringe takes months or sometimes years to create from inception to completed production. Often in this process of developing new work, the creators need an infusion of support, ideas, personalities, and questions. FringeDevelopment was created to supply exactly that.

This year, two new, in-process works will benefit from this concentration of artists as they utilize their creativity to move the development of a new work forward. Fringe Artists will be collaborating, connecting, and sharing ideas while they aren't performing for you! We've arranged for yoga classes, financial workshops, acting workshops, master classes and more!

Fringe Artists will spend several hours a day working directly with the creators of these works-in-progress to provide feedback, creative criticism, and support. You'll have a chance to see some of their work in the two public performances of Music From The Proof, and The Canterbury Tales. While these will not be full productions, they'll give you a chance to catch a glimpse of and participate in part of the process of creating a Fringe show. In addition, our friends at True Theatre have arranged for a special True Theatre performance featuring stories from some of this year's Fringe Artists!
