Edinburgh Festival Fringe
Edinburgh Festival Fringe
The Edinburgh Festival Fringe, often referred to simply as the Fringe, is the world's largest arts festival. It takes place annually in Edinburgh, Scotland, during the month of August. The festival features a wide array of performances, including theatre, comedy, dance, circus, cabaret, children's shows, musical theatre, opera, music, spoken word, and exhibitions.
History[edit]
The Edinburgh Festival Fringe was established in 1947 as an alternative to the Edinburgh International Festival. Eight theatre companies turned up uninvited to perform at the inaugural Edinburgh International Festival and staged their shows on the fringe of the official festival. This act of defiance led to the creation of the Fringe, which has grown exponentially over the years.
Organization[edit]
The Fringe is an open-access festival, meaning there is no selection committee, and anyone with a story to tell and a venue willing to host them can participate. The Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society is the organization that supports the performers and venues, publishes the program, and provides services to help artists and audiences navigate the festival.
Venues[edit]
Performances take place in a variety of venues across Edinburgh, ranging from traditional theatres and churches to pubs, temporary structures, and even the streets. Some of the most notable venues include Assembly Hall, Pleasance, Underbelly, and Gilded Balloon.
Impact[edit]
The Fringe has had a significant impact on the arts, providing a platform for emerging talent and experimental works. Many well-known performers and productions have had their start at the Fringe, including Rowan Atkinson, Stephen Fry, and Phoebe Waller-Bridge's Fleabag.
