Where else can you see some really great live theatre for $10.00? The Toronto Fringe Festival of course. That’s less than the price of a movie! From July 1 – July 12, 150 shows – drama, musicals, comedy, dance, improv, and performance art - will be performed by over 800 Canadian and international artists at 30 venues and spaces throughout Toronto. The Fringe is Toronto’s largest theatre festival and some Fringe plays like the Drowsy Chaperone have gone on to become internationally recognized and Tony Award winners.

The Toronto Fringe Festival is for everyone. There is even a FringeKids! venue where eight plays exclusively for children and families will be performed. Adults will appreciate the beer tent, two outdoor patios. and a free nightly Cabaret. Let’s face it. We’re all trying to save a buck these days. With festivals like The Fringe you don’t have to stay home. Check out the complete list of plays venues and map and buy your tickets and passes today. For more information call 416-966-1062.

Like most festivals, The Fringe depends on volunteers who assist venue House Managers with ticket sales and ushering, assist at the box office, and provide assistance to patrons and volunteers. Why not become a volunteer? In exchange for volunteering you will have a great time, a stamp to see a Festival performance or a free show if you are on a shift and working Front of House, and a free poster. If you have some extra money and would like to support The Fringe, donations are most welcome and needed.
