11th Annual Fringe Festival

Professional theater companies who have just appeared in the Philadelphia Fringe Festival, along with student and faculty performances, make up a fun, unpredictable festival of creative, original theater performances. All performances are free and open to the public.

A feature of this year’s festival is Nevermore Theater Project’s stage production of Edgar Allan Poe’s Tell-Tale Heart. The show stars Barrymore-award winning actor John Zak and is produced and directed by Domenick Scudera, associate professor of theater at Ursinus. It is also part of the festival in Philadelphia.

Another feature is the Waitstaff Sketch Comedy Troupe, called ''Philadelphia’s hottest sketch comedy troupe'' by The Philadelphia Inquirer. Waitstaff will present its new show, The Real Housewives of South Philly, directed by Scudera, the troupe’s resident director. The show will also be performed in Fringe Festivals in Philadelphia and Wilmington.

Additional performances in the Ursinus Fringe Festival are to be announced, and performance times and campus locations vary. Please call The Kaleidoscope box office at 610-409-3795 for specific information.
