Fringe Cabaret books fun acts that include variety, magic, dance, music, comedic dialogue, and general silliness. HFF16 registered shows get priority booking, but we also feature guest variety artists who would like to share their talents. Hard-hitting dramatic material is not the best to present on the Cabaret Stage, however, you can still promote your show through us by donating free show tickets or swag to be raffled off during Cabaret performances. To arrange a donation, contact [email protected]. PLUS! This season we are thrilled to be partnering with Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School to present live model figure drawing featuring cast members from HFF16 registered shows!

Veteran Fringers Brandon Baruch and Corwin Evans presented Workshop 4: How to Tech Your Fringe Show on Monday, May 9, at Sacred Fools Theatre.

Brandon and Corwin have put a folder of resources online for #hff16 participants to use, including a “How to Tech” manual, sample cue sheets, prompt books, and more! View it all here.

Offering discounts or comps to volunteers is a great way to give back to the Fringe community and get butts in the seats of your show. Please email our Volunteer Director, Stina Pederson, at [email protected] if you want to be included in the list of shows providing comps or discounts to Fringe volunteers. Please include the name of your show, your discount code, and what the code provides (whether the code will provide a comp or a certain dollar amount off). This information will only be shared with Fringe volunteers.

We have partnered with the City of West Hollywood’s One City One Pride LGBTQ Arts Festival to offer select participant shows with LGBTQ-themes complimentary Festival registration, courtesy of a scholarship received from the City of West Hollywood.
 
“As the Mayor of West Hollywood, I’m proud to support this new collaboration which extends the Hollywood Fringe westward as part of One City One Pride, the City’s LGBT Arts Festival,” says West Hollywood Mayor Lauren Meister. “This is just another example of how the City of West Hollywood supports our local arts community and helps provide more cultural offerings in West Hollywood.”
