The Free Fringe is a performance slot at The Hideout Theatre.
Summary
The Free Fringe happens every Thursday at 10pm at the Hideout. It is also free to attend, and features experimental and risky formats.
The show is concept-driven, rather than troupe-driven. The Hideout accepts online submissions for show concepts, and picks several to showcase each week.
In 2013, perhaps due to a paucity of such submissions, the Hideout moved to a headliner model, with two experimental formats followed by a monthly headlining troupe.
Many of the experiments put up for the Free Fringe have met with unexpected success and become recurring shows.
History
The Fringe premiered on 1/5/12, shortly after Parallelogramophonograph travelled to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and is patterned after that festival's own Free Fringe.[1]
