There are lots of ways to do Indy Fringe, the annual conglomeration of less-than-an-hour shows from near and far.
You could see the performers you liked last year (returnees include popular monologist Phil the Void, the outrageously off-color “Screw You Review” and cross-dressing magician Taylor Martin). You could focus on local legit companies debuting Fringe shows (including Dance Kaleidoscope’s “Piaf,” NoExit’s adult-recommended “Little Red Riding Hood” and Three Dollar Bill Comedy’s “School House Wrong!”) or take advantage of visits from out-of-towners (comic David Quirk comes from Australia, “The Best Audience Ever” was crafted in Canada). Or you could just pick based on cool titles or subject matter.
However you do it, any festival whose 56 mainstage shows range from “Abraham Lincoln, Hoosier Hero” to shows whose names would get this e-mail caught in your spam filter, is bound to have something of interest. Click here for a schedule. (Full disclosure: I penned one of the shows in this year’s fest.)
