GREETINGS Well, it seems like only yesterday we were marking 25 years of Fringing in Winnipeg and yet here we are celebrating our 30th anniversary Fringe Festival.

From the very first festival, Manitobans have enthusiastically embraced the Fringe and have supported independent theatre artists who put their creative energy and passion into original work for the stage. The Fringe is proud to provide artists with the freedom to explore new ideas and styles in order to tell their own unique stories. We are equally proud of our amazing audiences who continue to revel in the challenge of discovering exciting new plays and artists each year.

The Fringe would not be the success it is today without the incredible effort of the staff and volunteers who have been part of Team Fringe these past 30 years, and I’d like to thank them all.

I’m so glad you have joined us this summer and I encourage you to take a chance on discovering something new because at the Fringe, anything can happen and that’s the way we like it.

Have fun!

Chuck McEwen Executive Producer, Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival Anything can happen at the Fringe, and we don’t just let it, we encourage it. The costumed performers flyering, the mad blooming of posters on walls and fences, the masses of pedestrians stopping traffic as they drift from venue to venue: they were all part of this free-wheeling festival from the beginning. As we launch our 30th festival, those of us lucky (and old) enough to have attended the first one still remember its adventurous vibe. That inaugural festival also introduced us to great new playwrights who went on to transform our lives.

We’re proud that we let loose the festival’s uncensored joie de vivre on the concrete halls of our theatre, and the quiet sidewalks of the Exchange.

And we’re grateful that audiences have trusted us, following our unfettered artists into hundreds of venues (including a car garage and a city bus), anywhere that theatre can surprise and delight us.

The Exchange is different during the Fringe and, if truth be told, so are we: more open, forgiving and brave. I know the Fringe will bring out the best in all of us again this July, and remind us why we founded the festival all those years ago.

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

Throughout 2017, Canadians across the country will celebrate Canada 150 by taking part in activities and events that showcase our heritage and our cultural diversity.

The Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival allows residents and visitors to enjoy some truly bold and innovative performances by artists from the region, the rest of Canada and beyond. Our government is proud to support this festival, which for the past three decades has helped create jobs, boost tourism and make Winnipeg an even more wonderful place to live.

As Minister of Canadian Heritage, I would like to thank the Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre and everyone who helped make this year’s festival a success, both on stage and behind the scenes.

Best wishes for the festival’s 30th anniversary!

The Honourable Mélanie Joly Minister of Canadian Heritage As Manitoba’s Minister of Sport, Culture and Heritage, I am pleased to welcome the performers, volunteers, organizers and fans to the 30th edition of the annual Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival.

Our government is proud to support this hugely popular showcase of theatrical creativity that always succeeds in bringing a special vitality to our capital city every summer.

This much-anticipated festival has grown to become one of the largest of its kind in North America, due in no small part to the generous support, arts appreciation and community spirit of Manitobans.

The Fringe Festival is well-known for its intriguing menu of theatrical performances that offer something for every taste. Often irreverent, but always entertaining, this event gives visitors and locals another reason to explore avant garde theatre in a welcoming city that has long embraced the arts.

Congratulations to everyone associated with the 2017 Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival. Your dedication and hard work are bound to produce yet another successful theatre extravaganza.

The Honourable Rochelle Squires Minister, Manitoba Sport, Culture and Heritage

Welcome to the 2017 Fringe Festival!

For two weeks in July, thousands of Fringers will converge in downtown Winnipeg to see acts ranging from comedy to drama, from dance to song-and-dance, to something else that’s impossible to put into a category. For the performers, it’s a no-holds-barred venue for artistic freedom.

For the audience, it’s a no-holds-barred venue for entertainment and unique theatre experience.

On behalf of my City Council colleagues, I want to recognize the tireless hours of work that the performers, volunteers and organizers put into making this one of the best Fringe Festivals in the world. I hope everyone will enjoy the shows, invite your friends, and get the most out your Fringe experience.

Warmly, Mayor Brian Bowman City of Winnipeg To all frantic Fringers, Imagine a world devoid of rules.

The sidewalks are full of people.

You can eat all you want. You can stay up until the wee hours of the morning without consequence. People are jostling with each other to get into buildings.

The sound of people screaming is everywhere.

Mass gatherings dot the landscape. Have you entered the twilight zone? No, this is just another Fringe Festival year. Live the motto: “Anything can happen and we let it.”

As the Executive Director of the Exchange District BIZ, I want to welcome everyone to this year’s Fringe Festival.

Brian Timmerman Executive Director, Exchange District BIZ On behalf of the Canadian Association of Fringe Festivals (CAFF), welcome to the adventure that is Fringe. CAFF is comprised of 33 member festivals across North America with a mission to foster independent artistic exploration for artists and audiences alike. The Fringe is truly a feast for the artistically curious.

This past November CAFF played host to the World Fringe Congress, which gave us a chance to show off our ‘Made in Canada’ model of Fringing.

Over 53 international festivals participated and festival organizers marveled at CAFF’s accessible and inclusive model that returns 100% of the ticket price back to artists (minus taxes and fees). This year the Edinburgh Fringe celebrates its 70th anniversary and the global Fringe family celebrates with you!

Thank you for supporting the wild and wonderful movement that is Fringe. I hope you have a great festival.

Kelly Straughan President, Canadian Association of Fringe Festivals

HOW TO

PHOTOS BY LEIF NORMAN

PLAN YOUR PICKS This guide includes full descriptions of all indoor performances at the festival, which are also available on winnipegfringe.com. Performers are responsible for coming up with classifications to accurately represent the content of their shows.

We highly encourage patrons to carefully read the descriptions, age recommendations and warnings to find a show that’s the best fit for you and your group.

FRINGE WITH RESPECT

It takes hundreds of hours to put on a Fringe show, and a lot of guts to share your art with an audience.

Please respect how hard the performers work by following a few guidelines to ensure everyone has a positive experience: arrive early (latecomers aren’t permitted), please don’t take photos or video, and remember to turn off all devices before the show starts!

SEE MORE FOR LESS Maximize your Fringe experience without breaking the bank. Many companies provide special discounts for students, seniors and others. You can save even more by taking advantage of the many 2 for $12 performances – highlighted in yellow in this program and listed on our website.

JOIN THE CONVERSATION

Local media outlets often publish reviews, but that isn’t the only way to find out what’s worth seeing.

Word of mouth is a great way to hear rave reviews from fellow Fringers in Old Market Square, in the beer tent, or online.

The official Winnipeg Fringe Facebook page, Twitter feed and Instagram account are great hubs for getting the latest news, sharing photos, participating in contests and hearing what other patrons are recommending.

Created by John Janzen

Blink’s Garden began as a short parable, told in schools by Siloam Mission’s community educator, about “seeing beauty where others can’t see.” It grew into a 77-stanza “musical epic kid’s poem” that has been performed at the Winnipeg, Edmonton and Toronto Fringe Festivals.

Blink and Moeh are stuck in a barren land beside a huge dividing wall. Slowly but surely, Blink and the people in her land come to see that the health of Blink’s rejected garden and the health of their community is all tied together.

Crabapple Trolls

Comedy Clownesque • Winnipeg, MB

by Sue Proctor

Great for all ages, Crabapple Trolls is a delightful physical comedy about finding friendships in unlikely places. Every fall, Amanda sees bright, red crabapples turn into jars of beautiful, sweet-smelling crabapple jelly. Irresistible. But siblings can make anything difficult. To escape her family, Amanda investigates the culvert where parents never go but children can stand up and carefully make their way without being seen. The creek is full of life – water insects, tadpoles and frogs – maybe even trolls?

Hyronomous A. Frog (The Frog Prince)

by Edith Weiss

Hop into the land of Spam-A-Lot with Hyronomous and his friends. Hyronomous, an inept and lonely frog prince, lives in a bog in the kingdom of Spam-a-lot. Hyronomous is bored and unhappy as a frog. He’s larger than the other frogs and hates the taste of flies. One day, the good witch Gloria appears to tell him he was once a human prince and it was a spell that turned him into an amphibian. To break this croak-filled wizardry, Hyronomous must be kissed by a maiden.

Mr. Flubbers’ Undead Legions

Agnes & Agnes • Vancouver, BC

Written & Performed by Zorn Rose

When zombies are alone, they’re not nearly as vicious as their reputation would have you believe. It’s only when humans are around that the hunger starts to come over them.

Finn and Alice are a couple of newly deceased trying to avoid detection by locking themselves in a small apartment and cutting off all contact with the outside world. Their only living companion is their fish, Mr. Flubbers.

Although the premise is comedic, Mr. Flubbers’ Undead Legions also addresses the darker sides of isolation and guilt.

Written & Performed by Hazel Venzon & David Oro Unit Productions brings you a multimedia/theatrical experience through a visual feat: one-part radio play, one-part graphic novel and one-part puppetry! The Places We Go is about a girl, Grace, who goes on an adventure packed with trials and lessons while she attempts to find her mother a “perfect” gift on her birthday.

This performance provides an occasion for storytelling that reflects the history of Filipino migration in Canada and serious play around issues of long-distance relationships, family separation, reunification and motherhood.

The Trump Card chronicles Trump’s story from his early days to today, highlighting the rise of a new American archetype. A sharp and frightening tale of a “short-fingered vulgarian” and the American dream, from the company behind the sold-out Fringe production of Mike Daisey’s monologue The Agony and the Ecstasy of Steve Jobs (“Creative.

VENUE

Half Empty • Winnipeg, MB

140 Rupert Ave. at Lily St. | Main entrance

Tom Hendry Warehouse

by Wendy MacLeod

“We are living in the house of Yes, where privilege holds us captive.” Wendy MacLeod’s cult play is a succulent slapstick tragedy for our time, perfectly attuned to the rollicking rapaciousness of Trump’s America. Meet the Pascal family, dizzily ensconced in the isolation of their wealth. It’s Thanksgiving, mid-hurricane. Son Marty brings home his waitress fiancée, Lesley, to “meet the folks.” Jackie-O, Marty’s cheerfully unhinged twin sister, a human hurricane, is determined to foil Marty’s plan to jilt her.

Halo Productions • Winnipeg, MB

Neither ‘fallout’ nor ‘triumph’ can fully capture what happens when a trusted person violates a code. Time may tell, but even 25 years may not be long enough. Teachers and principals welcome.

Macbeth is as ambitious as ever, Lady Macbeth still wears the kilt in the family and King Duncan remains blissfully oblivious. But somehow, and despite the witches’ best efforts, everything comes together for Macbeth and his friends in this rollicking adaptation of Shakespeare’s classic play.

If you’re into Shakespeare, if you miss the angry dancing of the ‘90s or if you just love to laugh with wild abandon, you’ve come to the right place. Lay on, Winnipeg.

From half of the writing team behind the Struts and Frets Players: She has been blessed with the ability to see the future. Her curse is that no one will ever believe her. In a story that slides between the mythic past and the looming future, Cassandra foretells the events of a war that will overcome her homeland and destroy her family. Channelling the spectral voices of the Trojan women, Cassandra takes us from the past and into the present as old ideas of love, rage and revenge collide with new images of war, safety and righteousness.

The Harry S. RINTOUL Memorial AWARD Every year at the Fringe, the Manitoba Association of Playwrights (MAP) presents an award for best new Manitoban play in memory of Harry Rintoul, a leading playwright and founding Artistic Director of Theatre Projects Manitoba.

In 2002, The Manitoba Association of Playwrights (MAP), the centre for playwriting in Manitoba, established this award to honour Harry, who passed away suddenly in January of that year. This year, we celebrate the award’s 15th anniversary, and honour his dedication to the development of new work in the community.

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.

Two people struggle against each other and the empty space they’re trapped in to find a way out. Not knowing how or why they ended up in an “abyss”, the two search for meaning and understanding in their existence and in their relationship.

Riffing on absurdism and existentialism (and not without a dash of humour), this play explores how we deny and deal with meaninglessness.
