Hey everyone, I'd like to bring to your attention Blogging Fringe's coverage of individual shows - we are working hard to post links to websites, at least one photo, a decent amount of text and showtimes (still in progress, I think there are 6 of these up now). As I said before, if you find anything missing (or you'd like us to add/change something) please email < info AT bloggingfringe DOT com >.

Denna and Joey from P'shaw Productions have made two awesome ads for Mark Baratelli's Improv Cabaret recently.

I've just done a massive amount of work on the 2007 Shows page for the site, and I think I have some tips for you...

1. Go International - We have a few shows coming from overseas and a fair amount from Canada - give these shows a shot.
   

This meme is traveling around MySpace, so I thought I'd release it to the rest of the web. Written by Beth Marshall, it is a list of guidelines for experiencing the Orlando Fringe.

Yesterday I went to Stardust Video & Coffee for the Grandma Party Craft Bazaar / Outdoor Concert / Charity Fundraiser. I had a blast! My table involved making original buttons out of whatever materials you brought - most people used the provided paper and markers, but I also had people bring photos, magazine clippings and compositing several pieces together.

The purpose of the table was to promote my networking group, the Florida Creatives Happy Hour. Lots of people were interested, including someone readers of this blog should be familiar with...

Hey everyone! Ryan here with some FABULOUS updates! First of all, if you're reading this post via RSS feed, MySpace or email, please immediately stop what you're doing and head over to the BloggingFringe.com home page. You'll notice the site looks a fair bit different now, with a search box and some other fun stuff.

First off, take a gander at the search box.

notco and babyBlueStar are having a fundraising/promotional event for their upcoming 2007 Fringe productions. I hear you can sign up to participate in JAWZ the Musical as an extra during one scene - sounds like lots of fun. I will be visiting the UK, so I can't make it? Do I have any vouknteers to attend and blog about this event? If you own a digital camera, +100 points. Video: +1,000 points. Keyboard and typing skills required.
