In June 2010, over 175 different artistic groups representing all genres of performing and visual art participated in the inaugural Hollywood Fringe Festival, filling 17,000 seats in 30 different venues throughout central Hollywood. The event was called "an artful feast" by the LA Times, "a roaring success" by Backstage, and "a triumph" by LA Weekly.
Registration for the 2nd Annual Hollywood Fringe Festival opens tomorrow!
Registration is a three-step process that can be completed entirely on the Festival's website, starting with the creation of a project page. The second step is to book a contract with a venue, and the third step is to pay registration fees to the festival ($250 for a project with multiple performances and $175 for participants producing free or single-performance shows).
The Festival takes place June 16-26, 2011 throughout central Hollywood.
