And we’re off!


Launch Pad

Originally uploaded by tbridge.

Today marks the beginning of The Second Annual Capitol Fringe Festival! Last night’s launch event at the Fringe Festival Box Office (which is also a fringe art exhibit curated by its founder, Julianne Brienza) and at Avenue was a celebration of the success of the Fringe Festival in its short life so far.

With 500 performances over the next ten days, by over 200 theatre organizations, there’s going to be something for everyone in DC. Shakespeare done by Clowns? Got it. An Acrobat’s Interpretation of Amelia Earhart. Sure, why not? How about a Gilbert and Sullivan sing-a-long? Hell yes!

Check out the Online Festival Guide. Tickets to most events are $15 or so, very reasonable for arts events in DC. Get out! Support the arts!

I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
