Strange Charlotte Fringe Festival
Step into the black box for an eclectic night of live entertainment, where anything can happen—and probably will. Each show brings together a wildly different mix of performers, artists, and storytellers presenting work that is funny, strange, surprising, thought-provoking, and occasionally a little bit weird.
From comedy and music to magic, theatre, storytelling, and other wonderfully unconventional performances, no two shows are exactly alike.
The Magic and the Macabre! -Thursday, Oct 22nd 7:30pm
The fringe festival kicks off with the magic of Kevin Reylek and the dark comedy of On Hallowed Ground.
Strange Stories -&nbsp;Friday, October 23rd 8:00 pm
Friday features a film noir production from A Casual Affair, the wild-eyed wonder of Gregory Akerman, a pirate's tale, and the debut of The Bat!
Laughter through the Darkness - Saturday, October 24, 7:00 pm
&nbsp; Saturday features The Comedy Roast of Dracula, Live Nude Comedy, and the debut of The Bat. Bonus: Stick around for a live gallery read from medium, The Fresh Tarot.
Live Gallery Read - Saturday, October 24, 9:30 pm
Saturday's bonus show is a live gallery read from medium, The Fresh Tarot.
Come curious. Come adventurous. Come ready for something you won't find anywhere else.
One night. One stage. A whole lot of Strange.
