Podcasts about fringe festival

Dublin's Fringe Festival is just around the corner and over the next couple of weeks we'll be highlighting some brilliant shows by women that feature in this year's programme. In today's episode we're joined by Fionnuala Gygax and Venetia Bowe from Chaos Factory, a theatre company who are bringing their show Miss You to the festival from the 10th to the 12th September. The show is inspired by the many cases of missing women in Ireland and tells the story of three friends who get together on the 10th anniversary of their friend's disappearance. The pair talk to Róisín Ingle about their backgrounds in theatre, the importance of movement in their work and the joys of working in the creative industry. For more details on Miss You, see https://www.fringefest.com/festival/whats-on/miss-you Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Anita Smith is wearing purple work gloves and has a walkie talkie clipped to shirt when I meet her at W.E. Graham Park a few days before the Saskatoon Fringe Festival  is set to begin. She and her team of staff and volunteers are setting up for the festival and are not letting city construction get in the way of hosting another wonderful festival.  It has been another busy year for Anita. As Artistic and Executive Director of Saskatoon's 25th Street Theatre Company, she has overseen a year of innovative and engaging theatre productions. She also found time to direct a Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan production of Much Ado About Nothing this summer. Anita is pulled in many different directions, and I am always grateful for the time she makes to appear on the podcast.  This year's Fringe Festival is bringing theatre productions from across North America, around the world, and in our own backyard, to four theatres in the Broadway neighbourhood from July 30th to August 8th. The festival is also creating community through innovative programming including a local theatre company made up of teens who are producing their own fringe play!  Anita shares stories and details about this year's festival, along with the challenges posed by another year of construction in the Broadway neighbourhood, in our conversation. She also shares why this will be her final year at the helm of the Fringe Festival.  I hope to see you at one of the plays during the festival and thank you for continuing to support a local, independent podcast here in Saskatoon! Don't forget that Season 9 of YXE Underground launches on September 10th wherever you find your favourite podcasts!

Todd had a surprise birthday party. Sean kept recording anyway. Happy birthday, Todd.This week Sean sits down alone with author David Jon Fuller, whose debut novel Venue 13 is out now through Turnstone Press. What starts as a conversation about a ghost story set in a haunted Winnipeg theater quickly becomes something much deeper — a wide-ranging discussion about creativity, the bohemian life, what it costs to make art, why Icelandic culture produces so much of it, and how you keep your creative self alive when real life gets in the way.David has a background that covers theater, acting, the Winnipeg Fringe Festival, two years living in Iceland on scholarship, journalism at the Winnipeg Free Press, and now fiction writing. The connections between all of those things — and between his life and the life of his novel's protagonist Robert — turn out to be more intertwined than even David realized going in.Along the way: the creative parallels between Iceland and Winnipeg, why doom scrolling is the enemy of reflection, what it means to romanticize the bohemian artist life versus living it, the Fringe Festival, INXS and Michael Hutchins, Def Leppard at Christmas, Kiss in October, the Killer Dwarfs and a handmade wooden box set that David built himself and got the whole band to sign, and why asking your library to stock a book is one of the best things you can do for a Canadian author.About the book: Venue 13 follows Robert, an actor who buys a haunted downtown Winnipeg theater while working a restaurant job to keep the lights on — a man at a creative crossroads, trying to hold his artistic dream together while real life pulls in every direction. It's a ghost story, but it's also much more than that. If the main building sounds familiar, Sean figured out exactly which one inspired it.About the guest: David Jon Fuller is a Winnipeg writer, journalist, and former actor whose Icelandic heritage took him to Iceland for two years on scholarship, where he became fluent in the language, performed in student theater productions in Reykjavik, and developed a deep connection to Norse folklore and ghost stories that runs through his writing to this day. He also copy-edited Chadwick Ginther's Ravenstone books, which is a very Winnipeg small world moment.Venue 13 is available at local bookstores, Chapters, Amazon, and — David's preference — by request at your local library.Find David:Website: https://www.davidjonfuller.com/Bluesky: @davidjonfuller.bsky.socialInstagram: @davidjonfullerFind us everywhere: @seangeekpodcast Website: seanmcginty.ca Support the show: patreon.com/seangeekpodcast

There is always something happening in Saskatoon during the summertime. From Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan and the Fringe Festival, to the Saskatoon Ex and Rock the River, there is something for everyone to enjoy in our community.  Last week, my wife and I went for a walk on the Train Bridge on a beautiful afternoon. We don't often walk in that area of the city, and reminded me of how beautiful the views are of the South Saskatchewan River standing on the Train Bridge. It also gave me an idea for a summer bonus episode of the podcast: hidden gems to experience during a Saskatoon summer. Not that the Train Bridge is a hidden gem, but it's not a place I frequent. I reached out to my friend, and one of Saskatoon's greatest ambassadors, Darby Sutherland, to see if she would like to be on the podcast to share some ideas and give some suggestions of hidden gems in our community this summer. Darby is the Destination PR and Earned Media Manager for Discover Saskatoon. She works with media from across Canada and around the world who wish to experience all that Saskatoon has to offer. If there is something cool and interesting happening in Saskatoon, it's a safe bet Darby knows about it. When I emailed Darby to pitch this idea, I suggested we do it at the TD SaskJazz Fest before the Modest Mouse concert. I was hoping she would be going, and as you will hear in the episode, she did indeed have a ticket (as did 4,500 other people...it was a fantastic show!).  Darby shares a host of great locations and experiences listeners should check out this summer. I'll put the list with links below. A big thank you to Darby for turning this idea into reality. I hope you enjoy this episode and have a wonderful summer here in Saskatoon!

Stacie Burrows has become a regular at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, returning this August for the fourth year in a row. And she's not phoning it in, she's written a brand new, one-person, musical comedy called 'Fool's Goldmine.' All of Stacie's works at the Fringe - and everywhere she performs - are literally who she is because she bases her work on her own true life stories and journey. We talk the good of having confidence, putting yourself out there, and staying present in the moment even when you blank on the next line or song verse. We also discuss what to do when an audience members passes out in the middle of your performance. It's a good time, we tells you.

AUDREY CRABTREE, Executive Director KC Fringe The KC Fringe is the largest celebration of arts and culture in the Kansas City metropolitan area.

The mostly volunteer-run organization has been supporting artists, cultivating creators, and attracting adventurous audiences since July 2005. Our Mission-KC Fringe Festival champions creative expression by empowering artists to produce bold and innovative work through an annual visual and performing arts festival that is accessible and affordable for all. Our Vision-KC Fringe • Aspires to be the region's leading pipeline for artistic innovation, fostering individuals and groups with opportunities to continue on their artistic journey through education, mentorship, collaborations and partnerships with emerging and established organizations. •  Create cultural understanding by amplifying diverse voices through inclusive representation in our artists, programming, audiences, and venues and expanding the festival to be reflective and inclusive of global cultures. • Envisions a vibrant, sustainable cultural landscape where artists and audiences converge, forming a dynamic and engaged community to experience the transformative power of the arts.

We seek to expand our reach to fight against injustices and become a more welcoming and equitable place for everyone to enjoy the performing arts.

The earliest years are the wonder years. A time when children are curious by nature and undeterred by the unknown. That's why an EarlystART education is distinctively different. Here, we believe in the ability of creative expression to fuel and express passion. We are where hope flies high. Where families flourish. Where kids can be kids.  Here, we believe all children deserve a great education right from the start and will make the world better because of it. We're EarlystART, an innovator in wonder-filled early education for more than 50 years, and we're just getting started! At EarlystART, we are redefining early childhood education through a unique arts-infused curriculum that nurtures creativity, curiosity, and confidence in children from six weeks to five years old. Our approach goes beyond traditional learning - integrating visual arts, music, movement, and imaginative play into daily instruction to support academic readiness, social-emotional growth and resilience. In a community where many children face significant barriers from the very start, this model is proving transformative. We are seeing firsthand how exposure to the arts helps shape capable, compassionate, and confident young learners - the emerging leaders and citizens our community will rely on in the years ahead. • Why arts-infused learning is a powerful (and often overlooked) driver of long-term success • How EarlystART is addressing critical gaps in access to high-quality early education • The broader impact this work has on families, workforce development, and community vitality • Invite the community to support the Art of Wonder, our signature breakfast event on August 5th at the Zhou B Art Center Our Project Construct evidence-based curriculum encourages positive teacher-student relationships, autonomy, and child-led experiences. In this supportive, collaborative and child-centered environment, students not only develop per their individual needs – they flourish! Project Construct classrooms incorporate many of the activities found in traditional classrooms such as pretend play and block building, but have a clear emphasis on cognitive objectives. At EarlystART, our distinctive approach blends the Project Construct curriculum with the Arts, sparking each child's innate curiosity. We encourage creative expression and foster each child's social competence, support learning through play, and forge strong home-school connections. Our one-of-a-kind arts-infused environment touches all aspects of learning while also engaging families in the process. In turn, our students become enthusiastic, independent, and inquisitive learners as they march to their own beats and do what works for them! The EarlystART curriculum is a magical mix of visual, musical, and dramatic arts that come to life in our classrooms, art studios, and venues around the community. Why Art is Smart-Experiencing the arts prompts the synapses in a child's brain to fire away. And just like that, billions of new connections are formed through arts experiences and creative expression!  Our dedicated arts educators integrate the arts in meaningful ways: leading students and parents in after-school Stay-and-Play activities; addressing the special needs of students who have experienced trauma through arts-based therapies; welcoming talented Artists in Residence to The Studio, our on-site makerspace; engaging families and community in artistic and cultural experiences on site and around the community that inspire creative thought and an appreciation for the arts. EarlystART, 2008 E. 12th Street, Kansas City, MO 64127 The flagship center along Kansas City's 12th Street Corridor has long been an anchor of hope and opportunity for children and families living in the historic Northeast neighborhoods or who work in the nearby downtown business district.

The Edinburgh Festival Fringe is once again coming this August. This is the place where over 3,800 individual shows - yes - 3 thousand, 800 of them - will take place during the full month in what is billed as a global arts celebration.

Read transcriptAbout This Episode: What would happen if a newly elected Premier of Ontario was forced to live on minimum wage? That's the provocative (and deeply funny) question at the heart of Minimum, the political satire written and performed by Victoria Sullivan. After winning Best in Venue at the 2025 Hamilton Fringe Festival, Victoria is bringing the show to Toronto Fringe, and the timing couldn't feel more apt. Victoria is an actor, playwright, and producer based in Hamilton, working under the banner of Be Victorious (and sometimes the Intergalactic Federation of Space Beers - it's a long story). She holds a master's degree from TMU, where her Dante-inspired thesis project Daniel T's Inferno Latte became a critically lauded Fringe hit. With four consecutive Fringe runs under her belt, she knows what it takes to make a show land; and she's ready to find out how Toronto audiences respond to political absurdism in the current climate. This episode explores: How the experience of moving to Toronto and working for minimum wage sparked the idea for Minimum Why Victoria chose a fictional premier over the actual Premier and what creative freedom that decision unlocked Returning to a show with the same cast but a new director, and what that reinvestigation revealed The changing landscape of Fringe marketing - from flyering lineups to social media ads - and what actually works And much more! Guest:

It's almost time to head back to Edinburgh for the Fringe Festival! And naturally that makes me think of the 24/7 racket made by the resident seagulls.

Since its seat-of-the-pants beginnings in the early 2000s, the Prague Fringe has established itself as one of the leading events of its kind in Europe. Indeed, this year the festival is marking no less than a quarter century of existence with a packed programme that gets underway on May 22. The Prague Fringe was first dreamt up by two friends: Steve Gove, who still runs it, and Angus Coull, who is now back in the pair's native Scotland. And ahead of this year's landmark edition, Gove and Coull shared often colourful recollections of the festival's beginnings.

Uma palavra simples, cada vez mais presente no cotidiano, colágeno, virou ponto de partida para que a atriz, escritora e diretora brasileira Fabiana Mattedi construísse uma reflexão sobre envelhecimento, identidade e pressão estética. Luciana Rosa, correspondente da RFI em Nova York  Fabiana Mattedi conta que a inspiração veio de uma percepção pessoal ao longo dos últimos anos. A artista relata que passou a notar como o termo “colágeno” começou a aparecer com frequência em seu dia a dia. "Era uma coisa que, antes de vir para Nova York, antes de eu ter 40 anos, não sabia do que se tratava", confessa.  O estalo definitivo veio de uma cena aparentemente banal no metrô da cidade. Durante uma viagem no L Train, Mattedi ouviu duas jovens, na casa dos vinte anos, discutindo preocupações com envelhecimento e com a necessidade de “cuidar” do corpo desde cedo. A conversa chamou atenção justamente pela antecipação dessa ansiedade. Para a artista, esse comportamento reflete uma mudança geracional. Ela observa que pessoas mais jovens já estão conectadas a preocupações estéticas e corporais que, para gerações anteriores, sequer eram conhecidas. Segundo Mattedi, muitas vezes há um medo de perder algo que nem se sabe exatamente o que é. A partir dessa experiência, o que começou como uma crônica cotidiana evoluiu para uma investigação mais profunda, quase uma escavação, sobre o corpo, o tempo e as pressões sociais. A atriz afirma que o espetáculo nasce de uma inquietação central: o envelhecimento passou a ser tratado como problema. E, para ela, existe uma cobrança mais intensa e complexa em relação à aparência feminina. "Tem um questionamento dessa ditadura de beleza, de padrão de beleza, principalmente com nós mulheres. Com a gente tudo é mais complicado, mais difícil", analisa. No palco, esse conflito aparece com humor, mas também com densidade reflexiva. Mattedi explica que utiliza a comédia como ferramenta para abordar temas mais profundos. Segundo ela, o riso funciona como um filtro para expressar questões filosóficas e experiências pessoais. Mas a trajetória que levou à criação de "Notes on Collagen" começa muito antes de Nova York. Natural da Bahia, a artista se formou em teatro em Salvador, onde iniciou sua carreira e construiu suas primeiras referências. Ela destaca que participou de um projeto marcante ao lado da companhia baiana Os Argonautas, experiência que considera fundamental em sua formação. Foi nesse ambiente que surgiram encontros importantes com nomes como Vladimir Brichta e Emanuelle Araújo, além de uma rede de contatos que segue presente em sua trajetória. Anos depois, já com o projeto em andamento em Nova York, esses vínculos se transformaram em apoio concreto: Brichta e Araújo participaram da produção com vídeos que ajudaram na arrecadação de recursos para viabilizar a montagem. Para Mattedi, essa continuidade revela como a construção artística também depende de comunidade e colaboração. Ela também destaca a influência de suas origens. Segundo a atriz, a Bahia, que "deu régua e compasso para um monte de gente", teve papel fundamental na formação de sua identidade artística, funcionando como base para sua trajetória. Hoje, essa história ganha uma nova camada com a experiência de viver e atuar em outra língua. Construir identidade em outro idioma Apresentar a peça em inglês, segundo Mattedi, exige precisão técnica na fala, mas também envolve uma dimensão mais profunda: a de construir identidade em outro idioma. Ela afirma que atuar em uma segunda língua é um desafio que vai além da comunicação, e passa pela própria forma de existir em um novo contexto. "Tem o desafio técnico de falar as palavras com cuidado e com atenção para poder ser entendida. Mas, ao mesmo tempo, como eu falo em inglês é quem eu sou. E tem que ser assim, porque senão eu perco a minha autenticidade", explica, defendendo o "desafio de 'ser' em outra língua". Nesse processo, o sotaque também se torna parte central da discussão. A atriz critica a pressão, tanto nos Estados Unidos quanto no Brasil, para neutralizar a forma de falar. Segundo ela, há uma “padronização” da linguagem que privilegia determinados sotaques, especialmente os do eixo Rio-São Paulo, em detrimento de outras identidades regionais. A montagem de "Notes on Collagen" também reflete os desafios do teatro independente em Nova York, com equipe reduzida, direção compartilhada e soluções cênicas simples para se adaptar à dinâmica intensa dos festivais. O espetáculo integra o circuito do Fringe Festival, conhecido por abrir espaço para produções autorais e independentes. Nesse contexto, a peça encontra um ambiente propício para dialogar com o público. Mais do que falar sobre estética ou colágeno, o trabalho levanta uma questão mais ampla: em que momento o envelhecimento deixou de ser um processo natural e passou a ser motivo de medo? "Notes on Collagen" terá quatro apresentações em abril, no teatro Under St. Marks, no East Village, em Nova York.

On MoneyFM 89.3’s joins Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys welcome Melissa Lim, General Manager and Executive Producer of The Necessary Stage and the Singapore Fringe Festival, to discuss the urgent fundraising campaign needed to keep the 2027 Fringe alive. Since 2005, the Fringe has been one of Singapore’s most important platforms for socially engaged art. It has commissioned over 1,000 local artists and groups, presenting international works, and creating safe spaces for conversations on mental health, inequality, climate change, migrant workers, and identity. But with the loss of its long‑time title donor in 2025, rising post‑COVID costs, and a cautious corporate philanthropy climate, the festival is now facing a funding cliff. Despite a successful community‑driven campaign that kept the 2026 edition afloat, the current crowdfunding effort has raised just over $9,000 of the $80,000 needed, with the deadline looming on 31 March. Melissa shares why the Fringe matters — its commitment to emerging creators, accessibility for disabled audiences, and its belief that art must remain affordable and inclusive. She also explains what’s at stake if the festival disappears, especially in a year when even major theatre companies are struggling to survive.

Les, Kurt, and Jason are back after another extended break between episodes because Les keeps getting recruited to help a bunch of length-impaired Fringe Festival shows (and poetry jams). Since Kurt doesn't have any new Blac Chyna news, there is at least some June Squib news to fill the void. Plus, the guys talk about Mike White becoming absolutely ripped. Then, the guys look to the skies to see if they can make something of Hallmark's The Stars Between Us, a movie that keeps its chemistry-free leads away from each other for the entire movie while shining a spotlight on the secondary characters to mixed results. With two lead characters with no spark between them, the movie spends a lot of time devaluing paying ones dues to get on the news while grossly overvaluing the draw of a podcast about astronomy. The people in this movie are going to the bathroom for likely more than just dealing with their fiber intake: they're going to look at their length-impaired telescope.    Bluesky: lifetimeofhallmark Facebook : lifetimeofhallmark Instagram : lifetimeofhallmarkpodcast Threads: lifetimeofhallmarkpodcast TikTok: lifetimeofhallmarkpod Theme song generously donated by purple-planet.com

Deirdre Lovejoy Take a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Deirdre Lovejoy (DD). In this episode, we chat about her growing up in Indiana, and what made her mom tell her to get into acting. Next, we talk about an insane freak accident that almost took her whole hand off! Naturally I ask her about moving to Brookly after having lived in Manhattan for so long. We touch on her stint on the television show 'Bones', as well as her arc on 'The Blacklist'. Then we dive into one of my all-time favorite shows, 'Raising Dion'. I love this show, so I geek out a little, before we talk about her getting cast in the greatest show of all time, 'The Wire'. Then, we talk about a super rare condition that DD was later diagnosed with, following some really scary events (Stress Related Seizure Disorder). Deirdre shares with me the details of the play she is writing about some of her traumatic experiences (Trauma Nova), and how she plans to put the show on at this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival, in Scotland. We also discuss her other play (Bird Elephant China), which chronicled some unrelated traumatic events. Finally, we end talking about her love for NBA basketball, and her beloved New York Knicks. You can catch DD on the previously mentioned shows, as well as the upcoming seasons of 'Daredevil Born Again', and Diarra From Detroit.

Carlisle is the only city In County Cumbria, UK and one of the oldest cities, spanning 2,000 years. Someone who hasn't been there quite that long is the marvelous Dr. Steph McCullough, world renowned musical improv director! In this first of a two-part interview, Dr. Steph describes her love of her husband James and her new hometown of Carlisle. In her unique and melodious way, Dr. Steph describes her journey from Chicago to this historic city that is close to Hadrian's Wall, a place she loves to explore. She shares the story of her long distance love affair with James is better than any Hallmark movie, and it brought tears to my eyes. As she lives near Scotland she performed the 2025 Fringe Festival in Edinburgh. We discussed her research project on “seniors” while pursing a Ph.D., interviewing Del Close. Dr. Steph hadn't entered the world of improv yet and wasn't sure she wanted to after meeting with this historic figure. When studying at the IO she met up with Del again. Recently she has created The Improv Lineage Project, a research project that already has 700 participants on their personal improv lineage. You can join the study below. https://improvlineage.com To learn more about Dr. Steph you can visit her YouTube channel for some lessons on musical improv.
