“Fringe Style” is a theater style where several acts perform in the same theater on the same day, with 15 minutes to set up, a 45 minute performance, and 15 minutes to clear out. Affordably-priced tickets create opportunities for audiences to encounter genres of performance that they may not have seen before.
