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.

Do you love the Fringe? Do something about it!

The Breakdown:

Orlando Fringe has over 80 shows this year. Last year I viewed and reviewed about 17 of them, and a couple of freebie email interviews. Hence, there is no possible way for one person to see all the shows. I'm not even going to try.

What is Fringe?

A script writer with some shows in the Minnesota Fringe recently got asked some questions by a local student and is posting his responses on a website. There is no RSS Feed, no way for me to subscribe or add him to the Blogtracker, so I don't consider it a blog, despite its overt "blogginess". I can say the same for the official Minnesota Fringe site, as well as our own OrlandoFringe.org - they should at least link to a myspace blog feed or something.

OSF “Shakes” the Festival from its name

Submitted by ryanprice on Mon, 02/19/2007 - 23:55

From the Orlando Sentinel

The Orlando theater company best known for Shakespeare is changing its name.

Known for the past 12 years as the Orlando-UCF Shakespeare Festival, the area's largest resident theater company will be called Orlando Shakespeare Theater.

Apparently, the backers of the festival are hoping we the people will start calling it "Orlando Shakes" - hence the snappy title.

DRIP: Paint in Motion

Submitted by ryanprice on Fri, 02/16/2007 - 13:43

Imagine a painting that can paint itself, dance, look at you, touch other paintings and change those others with its own paint. Sounds too good to be true? It might be, but DRIP is bringing it to us.

There is a great interview with Marla Maribal, the artistic director for DRIP, over on her MySpace page.

Linwood Sassy’s Screw You Review

Submitted by ryanprice on Fri, 02/16/2007 - 13:11

I've just finished writing a post over on Orlando Video about Dewey Chaffee. You might recognize the name, but if not, just know that he is associated with a certain grumpy old man who has emerged as one of the early adopters of this whole YouTube/MySpace/promote your show/promote early/promote often... thing. If you have a Fringe show, look at what Linwood and Dewey are putting together.

I can't really say what the show is all about, but it's very clear that Linwood thinks our little festival is below his celebrity.

Starlight: Cabaret for $12, Student Price

Submitted by ryanprice on Sun, 12/31/2006 - 19:38

Over at Starlight Theater's MySpace Blog you see an exciting deal: $12 for the opening weekend of Cabaret, as in the musical, which is an enourmous savings over the regular price. They also made the deal for a Friday night, when Starlight also does a cabaret night with a full bar after the show.

Does Blogging Fringe get to post stuff to Patroncast? I guess so. What is Patroncast? Well our good friend Mark Baratelli has put together a little video to help us out. He even lets us know that Patroncast is now open for submissions.
