Denver, CO — 5/16/22

The Denver Fringe Festival is back for the third year June 23-26 at 10 venues throughout RiNo/Five Points with 40+ original shows in all genres of performing arts – twice as many as last year! An arts festival like no other, the Fringe attracts bold, risky, daring work from both local and national performers. A tiny sampling of this year’s lineup captures the variety:

a nationally-touring multi-award-winning one-woman cabaret dream play about the life of Josephine Baker starring Tymisha Harris
Elaborate and innovative circus shows from local circus troupes (think Cirque du Soleil) with aerial, partner acrobatics, juggling, dance, clowning and more
immersive theatrical experiences where the audience is at the center of the story

What makes the Denver Fringe Festival unique?

It’s part of the global Fringe festival movement in some 300 cities worldwide
It’s an open-application festival that attracts diverse artistic voices
All work is original and runs the gamut of performing arts forms
It’s unjuried, uncensored, and gives the majority of the ticket sales back to the artists
It provides a platform for independent and emerging artists
Fifty percent of the performers are local; fifty percent come from out-of-state
