Four Perth Solo Shows Chosen for New York Fringe!

This year the festival received over one thousand applications and only two hundred acts were selected. Of these acts only twelve are international and our boys from Perth are the only Australian acts to be invited. This festival is a fantastic opportunity for these independent artists to show the quality and  innovative nature of work being produced by the Perth arts community on the international stage. 

“The independent scene is really strong here and I think it does help that we are so far away from everyone else because we have developed our own branding, our own style and we have different stories to tell,” – Thomas Papathanassiou

As independent artists the greatest challenge is to raise much needed funds to get to the Big Apple, and  this is where you the community can help. Perth to New York is 12,000kms. Multiply this by four and you get 48,000km. What we are asking you to do is buy a share of the kilometers and help burden the cost of the journey across the seas. At only a $1 a kilometer every cent helps, so whether you buy 1 or 1000, these boys will be singing your praises with regular updates of the progress of the shows online. So dig deep and help PERTH REPRESENT their town at the holy site of international theatre.

Donations can be made through ABAF and are fully Tax Deductible.
