CHICAGO FRINGE FESTIVAL @CAD!

We’re very happy to announce that Chicago Art Department will be one of the host venues for this year’s upcoming Chicago Fringe Festival, to be held between September 1 and September 5, 2010. Expect to see great performing arts inside CAD’s storefront space located at 1837 South Halsted!

The Chicago Fringe Festival (CFF) invites emerging and established performing artists from Chicago, the U.S. and beyond to showcase their work and add to the dialogue of theatrical art. The Festival also seeks to enhance the perception of Chicago as a major hub for theatre. CFF encourages performers to take bold risks by providing an avenue for affordable productions. It also seeks to bring in non-traditional theater-goers through a commitment to low ticket prices and outreach into communities not commonly represented. In this fashion, The Chicago Fringe Festival provides an avenue for diverse artists and audience members to connect in a singular and immediate way.
