SPECIAL EVENTS

FrenetiCore presents the 4th Annual Houston Fringe Festival,  August 11-27, 2011. The Houston Fringe Festival is an annual performing arts festival presented by FrenetiCore in Houston's East End. The festival, now in its fourth year, takes place over three weekends and offers the best independent theatre, film, dance, music and visual arts from Houston area artists and beyond.

This year’s Fringe welcomes performers from all over Texas, Louisiana, New York, Minnesota, and the United Kingdom. Featuring disciplines ranging from puppetry and burlesque to drama and contemporary dance, these shows will entertain, thrill, and provoke audiences. Experimental art veterans perform alongside daring newcomers, with each piece presented between 15-60 minutes in length.

Look out for more information about upcoming Fringe Workshops taught by performers, after parties at Houston’s hottest venues, and the ‘Anything Goes’ Weekend August 26-27: two fast-paced, decidedly chaotic evenings featuring Houston’s best performance artists.
