SF Fringe Festival Runs September 5 - 16
The 2007 San Francisco Fringe Festival brings over 250 performances of 38 new shows to 8 venues in 12 days! The Fringe Festival features fresh, exciting theatre of all kinds for open-minded audiences of all persuasions from September 5 through 16.
"Now in its 16th year, The Fringe offers bright, new, often hysterical, and sometimes shocking theatre by up-and-coming writers and performers, as well as seasoned veterans. Often over-the-top and under-the-radar of traditional theatre, The Fringe has its rabid devotees – and wins new fans every year," states press notes.
The Fring runs for 12 days, September 5 through 16, with 38 shows in eight downtown San Francisco venues, all (but one) within walking distance of Union Square and the Powell Street BART station. Fringe venues include EXIT Theatre & EXIT Stage Left (156 Eddy), EXIT on Taylor (277 Taylor).
