Coming virtually to the Pittsburgh Fringe Festival after successful productions in New York City and Chicago.

by Not Too Fancy Productions, LLC and filmed at the Parkside Lounge in New York City, Wongo will be premiering on Friday, May 7 at 8pm EST and will continue to stream all weekend long Saturday, May 8 and Sunday, May 9.

The immersive version's NYC debut was at Bushwick's Brooklyn Fireproof, then it played for 10 months at the Parkside Lounge in New York City (where the video was filmed) before it's stint at the Chopin Theatre in Chicago.
