  • Atlanta, GA (1888PressRelease) April 10, 2012 - The first annual Atlanta Fringe Festival, scheduled for May 9-13, will be a five-day extravaganza featuring 27 eclectic shows from artists across the country.

    What is Atlanta Fringe? It is a performing arts festival that follows the "fringe" mission to provide an accessible, unjuried, uncensored outlet for all manner of theatrical work. Joining an international circuit of such festivals, Atlanta Fringe is dedicated to showcasing original, nontraditional work that celebrates diverse and multi-cultural artistic expression and that pushes audiences to consider new perspectives.

    Fringe's inaugural festival will feature artists from the Atlanta area and ten other states. The genres of work range from solo performances and spoken word to modern dance and cabaret, as well as a mix of comedic and dramatic theatre productions. Content ratings range from family friendly to general audiences and mature audiences - so there's something for everyone "on the fringe."
