On Fringe of Stardom at the Seattle Fringe Festival

Written by Pam


Continued from page 1

When you have 500 performances to pick from, there's no one good way to decide what to see. I opted forrepparttar Russian roulette approach and picked each show at random, based on how it fit in to my schedule. I opted for a Friday night, a Saturday matinee, a Saturday night, a Sunday early show, and, if I could take it, a late Sunday afternoon show. My goal was to squeeze in five shows each weekend, but I didn't quite make it. I saw eight shows total. Still, if you countrepparttar 105533 one show I saw that was actually four short plays, that jacksrepparttar 105534 number up to 12.

There are those who'd consider my commitment lightweight. Some folks take it upon themselves to see at least one show daily forrepparttar 105535 run ofrepparttar 105536 eleven day Festival. Shows are performed until late at night and many of them are quite short. It's not unreasonable to try to see three shows a night. And it's not expensive - a pass for five shows cost US$40 dollars this year. Single shows ran between seven and 15 dollars, andrepparttar 105537 Festival offered a number of 2 for 1 shows, making it all that more fun to bring a friend.
