Dear Fringe Enthusiast,

NOTE: We were so excited to send out the Encore results that we hit send before we'd finished filling in the rest of the newsletter details. Please read below to find out about our amazing T-Shirt Sale, as well as to see the C.R.A.B. trivia question for tonight and, oh, so much more!

How it ever got to be the final day of the 2008 Boulder International Fringe Festival we'll never know. 

But, alas, 'tis here. 
Sunday, soft, serene . . . intended as a day of rest.  Nonsense! Rest can wait, but stellar entertainment waits for no one!

Jessica Nicoll & Barry Oreck performing They Might be Napping

We have all year to "rest" before it's festival time again.  We must embrace The Now while it's still ours to enjoy.  Yes Fringers, today is our day; today we gather our collective wit, storm the field, and squeeze-in every last possible performance before the battle is won. . . and even then, even with our victory flag hoisted high - we march as one to a final encore performance! It's our day, and our festival! CHAAAAAARGE!


Christina Frank performing Trying Guilt

Encore! Encore! Bravo!

The results of the Fringe Encore! 2008 are in, and the best-selling show in each venue will get one additional performance this evening.  Now eager festival-goers get one more chance to witness their magic.  Congratulations one and all!

FRINGE TRIVIA QUESTION:  

What is the most common action performed onstage in the 2008 Boulder Fringe Festival? (hint: twice at C.R.A.B. last night).

Bring your answer to tonight's Daily C.R.A.B. with Eddy the Eskimo at Fringe Central - A.K.A. the Laughing Goat Coffee House at 10:00 PM (it's free!) (it's fun!) (it's absurd!) (you haven't really been to Boulder Fringe until you've been to C.R.A.B!)

P.S. At tonight's C.R.A.B., Eddy will climb behind the scenes with Special Guests

Show Cancellations/Venue Chages!
