Cabaret, comedy, city planning, theatre, storytelling, music, dance, visual art and more will be on offer in the Dunedin Fringe Festival, running March 12-22. The Dunedin Fringe Festival co-leadership team of Katrina Thomson, Ruth Harvey, Vanessa Beck and Hannah Molloy have been hard at work to co-ordinate performers from Dunedin, across New Zealand and around the world for the festival. The flagship events for the Fringe Festival will include the opening night showcase on March 11 at Te Whare o Rukutia, which will offer a taster of the festival fun to come. The Late Night Line Up, featuring a selection of the festival’s comedy acts, will run throughout the festival at Te Whare o Rukutia. Molloy encouraged Dunedin people to support the Fringe Festival and "to step outside your comfort zone a little and experiment with some fringe fun".
