Fringe Fringe is the inaugural festival from A Fair Cut, soon to be the Fair Cut Foundation, a not-for-profit that really, truly puts artists first. Our mission: artists making more work. With Fringe Fringe we’re leading the way in how comedy & fringe festivals run around the world.
Numbers update as registrations come in. See the full directory →
A governing board made up of people familiar with the day-to-day reality of being a working performer. 5 year CEO tenures.
A reasonable registration paid by all participants, artists and venues. Free for the first year of Fringe Fringe.
Our cut of ticket sales is 5%, locked forever. Every festival takes a share to fund the resources artists rely on. Ours never rises.
No festival managed venues. There is too much conflict of interest when a festival programs shows and runs venues and then awards awards.
A transparent panel of artists, attendees and indusry. Judge attendance is published, not their name, just a fairer open system. This keeps us accountable.
Humans have been trading for millennia. We believe artists can make a living sharing their craft. We'll run under a not-for-profit charity.
