From June 29 to July 10, seven of our Toronto staffers- Kelly Bedard, Duncan Derry, Kymberley Feltham, Lisa McKeown, Beth McNeil, Lorenzo Pagnotta and Whitney Richards- reviewed 100+ plays in this year’s Fringe Festival.
Special thanks to the Fringe Staff & Volunteers (especially Will King in the press office who handled all our ticket requests) and Congratulations to all the artists who killed it this year. It was a great festival. See you in 2017!
