Fandom was a mainstage show at The Hideout Theatre.
Summary
Dubbed 'improvised fanfiction', the show was an improv take on a different fan-beloved universe every week. The show opened with an invocation on the subject of the show, and then moved into a half-hour of short-form games that riffed on that show's universe. After a ten-minute intermission, the cast would return to perform a forty-minute narrative based on the fandom, perhaps drawing from successful elements in the first half's short-form games.
In addition to its main run, the Fandom cast also performed a one-off Buffy narrative at The Institution Theater on 1/25/13, and took over The Free Fringe for one night on 3/7/13.
