The Hollywood Fringe is a great chance to try out or showcase some new work. I usually lead self-producing and marketing workshops leading up to the festival that include best practices to really take advantage of the Fringe atmosphere. Follow this blog for more
Here is all the information so far for Hollywood Fringe Festival 2014! From their press release:
Greetings Fringers–
We hope you had an excellent holiday weekend (or just an excellent normal weekend for our friends outside the states). As we approach the end of the year, it’s time to start thinking about our endeavors for 2014. We are gearing up for our fifth (!!!) festival next year and we’re already talking about a lot of new ideas and changes to improve the Hollywood Fringe.
The fifth annual Hollywood Fringe Festival will take place June 12th-29th, 2014, after a week of previews taking place June 5th-10th. The first big date that you should keep in mind is the opening of registration on February 1st. Check out the other dates down below.
After the feedback we received at the Post-Fringe Town Hall this year, we’ll be hosting a meeting this Saturday, December 7th at 5PM at Theatre Asylum focused on improving our venue efforts in 2014. We are specifically looking to recruit new venues within the official boundaries (including found spaces), so if you have any interest in running a space or bringing your own, make sure to stop by. There’s some more information down below.

Please join us this Saturday, December 7th at 5 PM in the Asylum Lab (at Theatre Asylum), 1078 Lillian Way. We’ll be focusing on these venue initiatives for 2014:

- How venues can work together
- How to bring a found/DIY venue to the Fringe
- Matching potential venue managers or resident companies with venues who need help during the Fringe season
- Making partnerships with local businesses
- Dates for future venue meetings and workshops
- And more!
Hope to see you there!
