Life on the Fringe


Yesterday was the launch of The Age Melbourne Fringe Festival 2007 at RMIT's Storey Hall, a suitably baroque venue for an event that featured fabulously caustic poetry, half-naked acrobatics, a drag king and a farcical sideshow act (as well as the obligatory speeches from various dignitaries and sponsors).

Given that I'm the Chair of Fringe, I was one of the speakers. It was kinda fun. Hell, I even got quoted in The Age today!

The real reason for this post, though, is to tell you to pick up a copy of the festival program, or check it out online, then book tickets and go! See a couple of shows, see heaps of them: it's the largest festival ever, and this year is celebrating its 25th year.

Fringealicious!
