WELCOME TO BRIGHTON FRINGE 2012 Brighton & Hove is a pretty amazing city. For more than 200 years, its status as a hub of creativity and individuality has been renowned throughout UK and the world. An ever-changing, compact, melting pot of contradictions, there are few places where such vibrant, indignant, flamboyant progressivism and staunch tradition merge so seamlessly into one. I believe that Brighton Fringe reflects this same spirit. Thanks to its open-access nature, it will always be at the vanguard of the nation’s creative consciousness. Always relevant, occasionally offensive, this chaotic cradle of creativity provides us with the vital cultural and societal reality check that we all so badly need. It stands, not on the fringes, but proudly in the centre – a true Festival for Everyone. But we can’t do it alone. We depend on the generous support of our sponsors, donors and partners who enable us to continue our work, not just during May, but throughout the year as well. So our heartfelt thanks go out to them, and to you, both participants and audiences. Without you there would be no festival at all. So I invite and urge you to explore this incredible programme and to step into the world of Brighton Fringe. There is, truly, no better place to be. Julian Caddy - Managing Director
