GREETINGS

As soon as spring arrives and we start to experience sunny days, I know the Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival is ever so close. Soon, Fringe fans will be rushing around the Exchange District enjoying the independent theatre performances and other activities the festival has to offer.

Fringe Festivals across Canada and around the world embrace the idea of providing artists with the freedom to create work about any subject and in any style they are passionate about, so they can tell their stories to audiences who are willing to share the experience of live theatre.

The Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival is proud to provide this incredible opportunity to 179 artists and companies this year. We can’t wait to see what diverse and unique works are going to entice and entertain Fringers.

With so many shows to choose from, and only 12 days to see them, it can be tough to fit everything into your schedule. When selecting shows by your favourite Fringe companies this year, I hope you embrace the spirit of the Fringe and take a chance. Why not see a show or two by a first-time Fringe company? Or, if you really want to be adventurous, pick any show in the program and enjoy the wild adventure the artists take you on.

I hope you have a wonderful Fringe experience and I’ll see you in line!

Chuck McEwen Executive Producer, Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival

The Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival is theatre at its most elemental. Minimal set. Basic lighting.

At least one actor (usually, but not always, in costume). An audience. And a story.

Before you know it, we are no longer in a theatre.

We have been transported to another time and another place, where we share the characters’ fears and desires. In seeing the world through their eyes, we come to understand two contradictory things at once: that we are each utterly unique on the surface, and that we are all exactly alike in the depths of our being. This dramatic insight into the very nature of humanity is not the sole purview of the Fringe, but the festival does allow us the affordable luxury of dipping into that transcendent pool again and again, day after sweet summer day.

This is my final festival as Artistic Director of the Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre, and I will miss the mounting annual frenzy as the Fringe takes over our building. I want to acknowledge Larry Desrochers and the late Rick McNair for their pioneering vision, all the Executive Producers and their staff for engineering the festival’s rise, the artists for throwing their lot in with us, the audiences for embracing this festival with such fervour, all three levels of government for sharing our passion, and the citizens and corporations of Manitoba for their donations and sponsorships. This festival may have been inspired by Edmonton’s, but you have made it your own. Your generosity and hospitality have laid the foundation for every success: the sold-out shows, the record-breaking attendance, and, most importantly, the stories that helped us understand ourselves and our place in the world. I will always be grateful.

Yours always, Steven Schipper Artistic Director, Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre

Thank you to our Volunteers!

The Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival would not be possible without our dedicated volunteers who help make every year a success! We’re grateful for your commitment and passion in donating countless hours to ensure an amazing festival experience for patrons and performers alike. In addition, your generosity and effort put Winnipeg on the map as North America’s second-largest Fringe Festival!

Our volunteers are the backbone of the festival and play many roles in front of and behind the scenes, from selling tickets, bartending and supervising Kids Fringe to keeping our sites clean, answering questions and everything in between.

We’d like to extend a special thanks to the long-serving volunteers who go above and beyond, and have been with us for the past 25 years or more!

GREETINGS

Welcome to the 2018 Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival!

Welcome to the 2018 Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival!

The performing arts inspire us, bring us together and expand our horizons. One of the largest Fringe Festivals in North America, Winnipeg Fringe presents a wide variety of performances in a variety of genres by artists from across the country and around the world. It’s a huge celebration of creativity and diversity.

The Exchange District has played host to the Fringe since its very beginning in 1988, and it’s a sincere point of pride that Winnipeg’s “original downtown” has been the backdrop to one of the largest and most successful Fringe Festivals in the world.

As Minister of Canadian Heritage, I am pleased to support the Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival. I would like to thank the organizers and all the talented performers and dedicated volunteers who are helping to ensure the success of this year’s festival. Enjoy the shows!

The Honourable Mélanie Joly Minister of Canadian Heritage, Government of Canada

As Minister of Sport, Culture and Heritage, I am pleased to welcome the volunteers, visitors and performers to Manitoba for the 31st annual Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival.

Always a highlight of the summer festival season, this annual showcase of theatrical wit and whimsy brings a unique energy to our historic Exchange District, as thousands indulge their interest in the fine art of Fringing.

The Exchange District has always served as a hub for the arts in our city and it’s such a pleasure to host a festival that represents our theatre scene so passionately. We are excited to welcome the Winnipeg Fringe Festival back for another year of inspiring theatrics, festivities and fun.

The Exchange District is packed with inspired local entrepreneurs and has become a hotspot for some of the city’s best restaurants, cafés, pubs and cocktail spots — not to mention one of the most eclectic and intriguing collection of shops Winnipeg has to offer. And this year, we’re bringing a bit of the Fringe right inside these spots with our Tiny Preview series — five-minute snippets of shows you might like to see, and a nice way to take a chance on something new.

I’m pleased to welcome another year of Fringe energy and excitement to the Exchange! Happy Fringing!

David Pensato Executive Director, Exchange District BIZ

On behalf of the Canadian Association of Fringe Festivals (CAFF), welcome to the Fringe!

The Winnipeg Fringe Festival has earned a reputation for its quality and variety of performances, complemented by community spirit and hospitality that is second-to-none. Visitors and locals can choose from an intriguing menu of shows that amuse, inspire, educate and entertain. No wonder this celebration of theatrical creativity continues to grow and thrive.

We exist as an organization to unite, support, empower and strengthen our member festivals in order to cultivate and foster independent artistic exploration for artists and audiences across North America.

Congratulations to everyone whose hard work and dedication make this extraordinary event such a success every year. I wish you continued success.

We currently have 33 member festivals across Canada and the United States, and we are consistently growing every year.

The Honourable Cathy Cox Minister of Sport, Culture and Heritage, Government of Manitoba

Welcome to the 2018 Fringe Festival!

When the Fringe first rolled into town more than 30 years ago, it would have been hard to imagine the tremendous success it has become. With more than 100, 000 fans, almost 200 shows, and 12 days of non-stop fun, the Fringe transforms the Exchange – and beyond ­– into an entertainment powerhouse. Winnipeg’s summer festivals are part of what makes our city great, and the Fringe Festival is one of the greatest!

CAFF members return 100% of the ticket price to the artists and all festival participants are selected either by lottery or on a first-come, firstserved basis, ensuring that everyone has the same opportunity to tell their story on the stage.

We hope you enjoy this Fringe and are inspired to visit other Fringe Festivals to explore this incredible movement with as much passion as the artists offer you and the same curiosity that brought you here.

Congratulations on being an adventurer and thank you for being a supporter of the arts.

Lucy Eveleigh President, Canadian Association of Fringe Festivals

I want to thank the talented and hard-working performers, volunteers and organizers who make the Winnipeg Fringe Festival one of the best in the world. There is truly something for everyone – Happy Fringing to you all!

Warmly, Mayor Brian Bowman City of Winnipeg

LEAVE NOTHING TO CHANCE,

DONATE TODAY! The Fringe can be a wonderful gamble. Performers are chosen through a lottery and they’re often rewarded for taking artistic risks. Even audiences take the odd gamble when selecting shows, which is what true Fringing is all about. But some things we can’t leave to chance. In order to present accessible and affordable entertainment while covering the costs of running a festival, we need your support.

Please consider making a donation to our happy-go-lucky festival. You’ll enjoy special benefits and, more importantly, you can feel pride in knowing your contribution helps us return 100% of box office revenue to the deserving performing companies.

You can donate online at winnipegfringe.com or by calling Kris Olafson at 204 954 6412. Thank you!

Thank you to our generous donors who made a gift to the Winnipeg Fringe between May 31, 2017 and May 30, 2018.

PET POLICY Though we love our furry four-legged friends, the Winnipeg Fringe recommends you leave your pets at home. The festival isn’t animal friendly (no water stations, hot pavement, crowded atmosphere that may overwhelm your pet), and festival goers may not be comfortable around pets. Our goal is to keep the festival safe and comfortable for all visitors. Note that service dogs are allowed.

Grimm’s Fairer Tales – traditional stories reimagined for a modern age

by Eden Ballantyne & Brothers Grimm

With Wolves, Witches and Goblins, the story unfolds as the audience is invited to become part of the drama. The Brothers Grimm collected their classic tales over 200 years ago. Today, interactive storyteller Eden Ballantyne has reimagined them for a contemporary audience. Maybe Little Red Riding Hood won’t have to wait for the woodcutter to save her? There may be a house of gingerbread, but what else could be waiting in the woods?

A psychiatrist has disappeared without a trace. Dr. Greenberg interrogates Michael, the last patient to see him. Michael speaks of elephants and opera, with the occasional hint of murder and foul play, and lures Dr. Greenberg into a devious trap. Fraught with mind games and verbal tugs-of-war, The Elephant Song is a dark and savagely funny cat-and-mouse game that will keep you guessing until its haunting conclusion.

Three Strokes Under Par • Winnipeg, MB

by John Patrick Shanley

A “GO Picture” film is in danger of going over budget and straight to video. The producer, the writer and two of its stars fight for control of the movie’s fate...as well as the fate of their careers.

“If you’re going to write a satire about the movie business at this very late date, it had better be very, very funny. In the case of Four Dogs and a Bone...that criterion is most abundantly met.”

– New York Times

What would you do if you had to choose between your first love, the love of your youth, the love you married and had children with, the one you loved until the day they died and your last love, the love who healed your broken heart and was the companion of your later years. That’s what Jerry and Patti must do, leaving the ones they don’t choose to an uncertain eternity.

How Hard Could THAT Be?

Created & Performed by Trent Arterberry At age 20, Trent Arterberry decided to drop out of college, create a show, get married, buy a house, raise a family and provide for his retirement as a mime artist! After all, he thought, “how hard could THAT be?”

Tracing the ups and downs of 25 years of relentless touring – from colleges to cruise ships, rock star openers to Radio City Music Hall, “the story is a delightful and personal account of finding your calling and overcoming the obstacles that life throws up” (Showbill.ca). “brilliant…heartfelt…wonderful” – Monday Magazine

Written & Performed by Debra Ehrhardt Directed by Joel Zwick (My Big Fat Greek Wedding), Debra Ehrhardt shares true stories of up-close-and-personal encounters with those very complicated ‘members’ of the opposite sex. From her early years as a young girl raised in a religious family, through her sexual awakening as a young adult, she takes us on a bumpy ride over a funny, sexy and emotionally rocky road.

Hang Me Out To Dry

,she said Collective • Winnipeg, MB

Written & Performed by Kate Willoughby, Kelsey Funke & Victoria Emilie Hill One poly queer woman who needs therapy on the weekly just to deal.

One non-religious Mennonite old maid who – to her family’s dismay – is without child.

One self-diagnosed overthinker who is somehow still afraid of the dark.

Three muddleheaded humans consider where it all went wrong ...and were trying to figure out what kind of show they’re doing to satisfy the Fringe program but it was due in March and we could really only say there will be movement, poetry and some ridiculous sketches. So stop asking!

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat

by Tim Rice & Andrew Lloyd Webber

“Celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2018, sha la la Joseph you’re doing fine! You and your dreamcoat ahead of your time! One of the most enduring shows of all time, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is a reimagining of the Biblical story of Joseph, his father Jacob, eleven brothers and the coat of many colours.”

PLAY-DRAMEDY

After their 1611 performance, actors from the Scottish play meet at a local tavern, with hilarious results. Banquo has a hearing issue, Macduff has taken his role a bit too seriously, the choreographer cannot stop choreographing everyone’s actions, and the witches – well, are they actors or real witches? When their host unexpectedly drops dead, the play becomes a murder mystery with a surprising ending. The play is rich with historical and Shakespearean references, but you don’t need to be an expert to appreciate the humour.

Chicken For Supper Productions • Victoria, BC

It is a truth universally acknowledged that an actor in possession of a woman’s story must be in want of a wife – to help him adapt it.

Charles Ross (One Man Star Wars, One Man Lord of the Rings, One Man Batman, One Man Stranger Things) and visual artist Lisa Hebden tackle the greatest romantic comedy ever. The intrigue, dancing and proposals (did we mention the lace?) are given the one-man once-over.

Based on true events, four girls read the contents of their journals, highlighting every kiss, every drink, every situation they were confused about and every time they were left wondering why the boys they trusted made the choice to harm them. Their only source of solace during their confusing adolescence is their journals, each other, and the hope their wings won’t always feel so clipped.

Animosity

Downside Up Productions • Winnipeg, MB

by Wren Brian Two people. Trapped in an abyss. Refusing to get along.

PLAY-DRAMA

In this absurdist/existentialist play two people struggle with feelings of fear, disconnection and anger at each other, the space and themselves. With no memory of who they are or who they are to each other, they have to confront how and why people come to hate each other, as well as how to move forward.

This is a companion piece to last year’s Anomie (winner of the Rintoul Award for Best New Manitoba Play at the 2017 Winnipeg Fringe).

by Tennessee Williams “I think for some uncertain reason, mercy will be shown this season to the lonely and misfit, to the brilliant and deformed.”

PLAY-DRAMA 90 MINUTES

Tennessee Williams’ playwriting voice is always a lyrical plea for mercy. In Confessional, he takes us to Monk’s Bar, not far from Treasure Island Trailer Park. Eight characters, variously down and out, form a loose community of the not quite vanquished. They confess, to each other and to us, the reasons for their current “sinking” and make plans – desperate as well as comic – for escape.

The Harry S. RINTOUL Memorial AWARD The Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival has always been a welcoming and encouraging place for artists to experiment and share their work with audiences. Each year at the Fringe, the Manitoba Association of Playwrights (MAP), the centre for playwriting in our province, presents an award for best new Manitoban play in memory and honour of Harry Rintoul, a leading playwright and founding Artistic Director of Theatre Projects Manitoba, who passed away suddenly in January of 2002.

Entries from local performing companies are juried by a panel of theatre professionals during the festival, and the winner is presented with a $500 prize from MAP and a Super Pass donated by the Fringe for the upcoming year.

Last year, the award was presented to Wren Brian for Anomie.
