Marie Hitchcock Puppet Theatre

Traveling from Asheville, NC, for the San Diego International Fringe Festival, this show is a dramatic conversation between two gay men of different generations, comparing life stories, with a Freaky Friday twist.&nbsp; Performing 5/15 9PM, 5/17 6PM, 5/19 9PM, 5/22 10:30PM, 5/23 9PM.&nbsp; Ages 16+
It is based on stories from the actors' lives, including the exploration of what it means to be close friends. Being vulnerable with each other (in front of an audience, of course) brings them to a dynamic shift.
This is a serious comedy from two funny, deep-thinking and -feeling guys, who love bringing real life, with a healthy degree of fantasy, to the stage. The show won the "Pushing the Boundaries of Storytelling" award at Asheville Fringe Arts Festival 2025.

A San Diego mom and U.S. Navy service member is bringing her deeply personal story to the stage.
“Where the Heart Belongs” is a one-woman performance by Vietnamese artist Linh Tran, presented at the San Diego International Fringe Festival.

At its heart, the performance is a love letter to her first child, and a tribute to the child she lost--an emotional journey through motherhood, love, loss, and healing.
