Message from the Director To all the artists, volunteers, patrons, staff, old and new friends: Hey! Congratulations! We made it! Our second decade! Time for new beginnings, new ideas, and a whole new Frtnge\ As this bizarre theatre mutation turns 11 years old. its chaotic energy, spontaneity, and fierce sense of community continues to defy its maturity and its huge size.
Message from the President Greetings from the Chinook Theatre Society Board of Directors. Wow, our second decade of Fringing in Edmonton. Thanks to that valuable resource — PEOPLE — The Fringe Also Rises.
Your energy, your spirit, your passion and your commitment keeps this festival in a constant, explosive state of rebirth. I not only welcome you and all your crazy energies, 1 thank you — with all my energy, spirit, passion and commitment. Each year you bring an openness and a generosity of spirit that stimulates new ideas and demands re-examination of the old ones. There is a dome of safety over the Fringe festival — not in the sense that everything you create, experience and explore will be safe. Far from it. Rather in the sense that you are free to create, experience and explore at will. Your spirit of freedom is safe here. We won't stand in its way at all. Indeed, we live for it. So, at the beginning of this new decade of Fringe-'mg, I urge you to
These people are of many minds and make the Fringe work in many different ways. THANK YOU artists, staff, volunteers, Old Strathcona business and residential community, corporate sponsors, and the many others too numerous to mention. Most of all, thanks to YOU, the faithful Fringe attendees for your support and belief that Fringing is Fun. But wait, there's more. Chinook Theatre moves into this decade by going public. Imagine sharing with your children and your grandparents a family theatre event! Kids from 3 to 93 can be
continue in your zeal to keep this festival in a constant state of rebirth and recreation. Don't stop. Push the limits. Never be told it can't be done because this damned Fringe phenomenon is living, breathing proof that the word impossible has no power here. At the risk of sounding like Peter Pan when Tinkerbell almost buys it — all you gotta do is believe in it. So clap your hands — because I know you already believe in the spirit of Fringes. And go ahead. Take a risk. It's safe... Sincerely, Judy Lawrence Festival Director Fringe Theatre Event
part of what used to be a touring theatre right here. AWESOME!... This is also the kick-off year to make the archway to accessible theatre a little wider. Watch for how you can be a part of the community that helped keep the bus barns forever a Fringe site in Old Strathcona.
Enough said - Let's do the Fringel
Betty Grudnizki President. Chinook Theatre Society
For nine days each summer The Fringe Festival and Old Strathcona become the heart of Edmonton. Entertainers from all over Canada and the world take part and everyone is treated to a wide range of theatrical experiences. This year marks the 11th Anniversary of The Fringe Festival and CBC Edmonton is proud to have been a supporter from the beginning. Once again EDMONTON PM will be broadcasting on site and THE CBC ALBERTA NEWS and EDMONTON AM will keep you up-to-date on what the critics and the audiences are saying. On behalf of all of us at your Summer Festival Station, I want to wish The Edmonton Fringe Festival great success in 1992.
Edmonton'5 Fringe Festival: a vibrant nine days in August that lifts the spirit and excites the senses. An outstanding experience for young and old. The Fringe contributes significantly to the cultural fabric of our city.
The vibrancy of our fine city is to be celebrated, and The Fringe does that as no other event does. For nine days each summer, Edmonton S*non5n•Journal is at centrestage in the world of theatre. Fifteen stages and one hundred and fifty theatre productions are at the heart of it, and on the fringe of the Fringe are street performances, spontaneous entertainment and good eating and drinking.
Ron Smith Regional Director, CBC Alberta
The Journal is proud to sponsor one of the best things about Edmonton. We're also proud to cover the event — it's a big part of our commitment to bringing our readers news and views on the entertainment and cultural aspects of our city, our province, our country and our world.
96 K-L1TE FM is proud to support the Fringe and help increase the event's overall awareness. 96 K-LITE FM will broadcast live from Old Strathcona weekday afternoons with Dale Wolfe from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm for the run of The Fringe. 96 K-LITE FM joins all Edmontonians in saluting the many volunteers without whose help the Fringe Festival would not happen. Best wishes for another successful Fringe Festival.
Linda Hughes Publisher, The Edmonton Journal
Warren Holte President 96 K-LITE FM, CFCW Broadcasting
Edmonton is unique not only in Alberta, but in the rest of our country for its sweeping festivals and civic pride. In a year that celebrates the birthdays of both Edmonton and Canada, I am proud to associate CFRN-TV with such an ambitious and popular festival like The Fringe. Alberta's most watched television news service, CFRN Eyewitness News, will be there to capture the excitement of The Fringe for all of central and northern Alberta.

For nine days, the Heart of Old Strathcona experiences a series of pops, blasts and ka-bangs as the Fringe spirits play. Cantel is delighted to take part in the excitement and be the cellular choice of Canada's most renowned theatre event.

// is a thrill and an honour to welcome theatre lovers to one of the world's most exciting and creative theatrical events. The 1992 Fringe Festival brings to Old Strathcona an adventurous and eclectic theatre experience that adds enjoyment to everyone's summer. Edmonton is proud to have this festival as part of its cultural landscape.
There is nothing like Edmonton's Fringe Festival Event to make our spirits rise for nine spectacular days in August. This year, The Fringe Also Rises! will be no exception. Congratulations to all who worked to create this festival and to those responsible for its vibrancy and growth over eleven years. The Fringe is an extraordinary example of what steadfast commitment and enthusiasm can generate. Organizers, volunteers, cast, crews, sponsors and patrons are to be applauded. On behalf of Alberta Culture and Multicultural ism, please join us in celebrating innovative theatre, and do have a happy adventure in colourful Old Strathcona.
The Edmonton Fringe Theatre Event is a kaleidoscope of avant-garde entertainment, a showcase for innovative Canadian talent, a venue which offers something for everyone. The Festival attracts thousands of spectators each year, luring enthusiastic audiences with its promise of magical images conjured by playwrights and performers from all over the globe. I am pleased that the Department of Communications has been able to lend its support through the Cultural Initiatives Program. It is indeed a pleasure to welcome artists and theatregoers to the Edmonton Fringe. Best wishes to the organizers and volunteers for a successful Festival.
Doug Main Ministry of Culture and Multiculturalism
Perrin Beatty Minister of Communications
Entering its second decade, The 1992 Fringe will offer more new and familiar features. This year's event builds on one of the festival's key strengths — its ability to infuse theatre with popular appeal, offering something for every age and every taste. To Fringe organizers, volunteers, participants and audiences, I offer hearty thanks for making Edmonton's theatre festival a resounding success. The Fringe Also Rises! is an apt title for a festival that continues to excel year after year. Yours truly, Jan Reimer Mayor
An invaluable guide to ensure your safe and pleasant journey through the Fringe festival...
THE FRINGE ALSO RISES! has 15 theatre venues, three site specific performance spaces and three main outdoor areas, all within easy walking distance. Some theatre venues are "real" theatres, but most are converted schools, halls, old empty buildings and colourful tents. All are clearly marked with Fringe signs. You can also find them on our Fringe map, page 54. Our best advice for festival survival is to get to know the map intimately so you arrive early to your destination. We show no mercy to latecomers (see Fringe Tip Number 9|.
All 15 theatres operate each day from noon until after midnight. Performances are scheduled continually in each space, with approximately one hour between shows. And they always start on time — if one performance starts late, it backs up the entire day's schedule, so, please, get to the theatre early. The Master Schedule, located in the centrefold of this program, will tell you what's playing next, when, and where on the Fringe. During the festival, tickets for each performance are only available at the theatre where the performances have been scheduled.
. m i l
Descriptions of each indoor show at this festival are listed according to the stage in which they have been scheduled. Study the program listings carefully before you begin. The Index on page 109 lists the general style of the show, but it's wise to check the individual listings for each production. Each show is presented once per day at the most, and (almost) always in the same venue. However, many of the shows have a variety of performance times throughout the nine days so you may be able to catch a show at a different time on another day.
Inevitably there are changes made to the Master Schedule after this program has gone to the printer. So check our Daily Notice Boards before commiting yourself to a show —just in case the show has been cancelled! At either end of the festival site — one on the west end of 83 Avenue and one in King Edward Playground— there are CBC Daily Notice Boards next to the Information Tents. Each morning, any changes or substitutions as well as the schedule for that day's Outdoor Stage Entertainment wiil be posted on these boards. Listings should be available each day by 11:00 am.
Tickets during the festival may only be purchased at the theatre venue where the performance has been scheduled. (We do offer advance sales at a central location — check out page 105 for details — but we only offer this service until August 13.) Each theatre only sells tickets to those shows scheduled in it. Tickets for the first show at each space will go on sale one hour before performance. Tickets for the next show will go on sale 10 minutes after the previous one goes into performance — and so on, for the rest of the day.

We do not allow any latecomers into the theatre after the performance has started, even those patrons with tickets. And, because all box office reveue remains with the performers, the Fringe is not authorized to offer refunds.
This tip refers to absolutely every type of art form, entertainment, behavior, and weather pattern you've ever encountered, and then some. Bring an open mind and a knapsack with a change of clothes (we've had heat waves, rain storms, and frost during those infamous nine days) and a few eating utensils. Then enjoy the adventure....
There are three outdoor areas on site this year with all sorts of entertainers on the streets and in the parks passing the hat; three site specific performance spaces — B.Y.O.V.S (Bring Your Own Venues) described on page 32; an opening day Fringe Performers' Parade on Saturday morning (see page 12 for details); the draw for two free SuperPasses at the opening ceremonies in King Edward Playground after the parade; and an unforgettable (and unplanned) Finale" at 9:30pm on Sunday, August 23....
The freedom of performers (and audiences) at the Fringe is utterly unrestrained. Fringe staff and volunteers organize the event, but all productions are created by the artists themselves. No Fringe staff or volunteer will recommend one show over another. So talk to your festival neighbours on site — the ones in the line-ups, at the parks, hovering by the daily notice boards, sipping a cool one over a tattered Fringe program... If you enjoy a show, tell the performers and tell your friends. If you see something you don't like — try again!
We will have three information tents set up for any questions or comments you may have. One tent is located at the west end of 83rd Avenue, another is in The Link and the third is in the middle of King Edward Playground. If you have a concern, please let us know!!
We have many requests from the general public like "Is 'so-and-so'acting at the Fringe this year?" And lots of times we just don't know. So this year, we thought we'd ask all the Fringe companies to send us info on cast/director/ designer/other neat stuff before our program deadline — so we, in turn, could add it too everyone's collective knowledge. And you know what? Some of them just didn't know. The ones who

did know have this information listed with their show information. We sense, as well, the ones who thought they knew at the time of the program put those names down, too. Please be forewarned that only major changes such as show cancellations, show replacements and changes in duration of performance will be noted on our Daily Notice Boards. Tickets at the festival are limited to two per customer and are sold on a firstcome, first-served basis. At least 50% of the seats for each performance will be available at the festival on the day of performance. All tickets not sold in advance (July 31 - Aug. 13) will also be sold at the theatres. No ticket costs more than $8 — and many are less. All ticket revenues go directly to the artists (minus 7%...)!
The proud and completely unpredictable Performers' Parade takes Whyte Avenue by storm on Saturday morning, August 15 at 10:30 am sharp. Hundreds of Fringe performers and festival friends will fill
the streets of Old Strathcona as they help celebrate the opening of the Fringe's second decade with The Fringe Also Rises! Celebrations culminate in King Edward Playground when we hail the
opening of the festival with an official launching of Edmonton's 11th annual Fringe Theatre Events Don't miss it!

Street Fringe is the name we give to the chaos of performances, events and activities that take place at the outdoor stages, on a piece of lawn, in the streets — al! the theatrical spillage at this festival that just doesn't fit in an indoor theatre venue!
Three outdoor stages {.see Fringe map page 54) will be programmed continuously with street performances: one stage is in of the Gazebo in Mcintyre Park, the second is in the middle of King Edward Playground, and the third stage (two years old this summer) is part of The Link. Check the CBC daily notice boards for names of performers as well as where and when they'll be performing. You'll find the boards located next to our information tents on site. The Link takes over the parking lot east of the 83rd Avenue Site, south of Yardbird Suite Playground, basically. Hence the name: The Link.
• between 83 Avenue and King Edward
The Link will not only house continuous live outdoor entertainment, but also be home to numerous arts and crafts people and a food vendor or two, as well.

This year for the first time we have some official Fringe of the Fringe artists who were determined to help celebrate the festival, even though we couldn't supply them with a venue. So they brought their own!! The following BYOV/Site Specific shows are so specific to their location (due to some pretty obvious and extreme circumstances â&#x20AC;&#x201D; like ice, Or a car, or musicians set up to record...) they are unable to be housed in a traditional Fringe venue. They are nonetheless a welcomed part of the festival, and we embrace them heartily, applaud their innovation, ingenuity, tenacity, and talent. Because the idea of artists bringing and being responsible for their own venue is a new one for all of us, we ask you to please be patient; we probabiy don't know all the cracks we can fall through on this one yet. Help us. Talk to us. give us your input â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and be sure to check out the shows!!

Here it is: the fabulously funky (and accurate) Fringe Map! No first-time Fringer should attempt crossing the site without one! Even Old-Time Fringers should check it out, as venue numbers and locations have changed this year. We have recently expanded our outdoor site to include The Link, complete with a new outdoor stage; we also have a couple of BYOV (Bring Your Own Venue) locations for indoor performances that just couldn't fit in a regular Fringe venue (so the artists brought their own!) and a cacophony of other activities, events, arts, crafts, and food!

Let's help keep Old Strathcona and the Fringe grounds clean and minimize the strain, specifically to our landfill sites, but more generally, to our one and only planet. Please, read the following suggestions to help you spend time with your planet as wisely and as efficiently as possible during your time with the festival: &nftft/<WrWfrltfMftfe, Our food vendors are more than happy to serve those who bring their own plates and cups â&#x20AC;&#x201D; indeed, many will be offering discount incentives for those who provide their own containers. And the festival has installed extra wash-up sinks near the washrooms on site.
or bring your own. Alberta Liquor Control Board regulations require that the majority of the beer we sell must be from kegs. So please, help us reduce the amount of plastic we're recycling by using a reusable mug. Recycling depots are located throughout the site, peopled by our Green Team volunteers who will help sort trash into its respective barrels: one for clean paper, one for glass and tin, one for recyclable
plastics, and one for waste products (food, mostly). So when you're done your lunch, bring the remains of it to a depot. Volunteers will help you determine how to sort it and deposit it. on the bins and match the trash. In addition to the recycling depots, the festival will still supply various bins for you to help sort your garbage. Every bin on site is labeled as to whether it contains clean paper, tins and glass, or food and other nonrecyclable waste material. Clean paper is the toughest call: if the paper product you're using has been contaminated with food in the least, it is nonrecyciable and belongs in the nonrecyclable bin. But any of those fliers that are handed out, or this program, or other paper not soiled by food, is considered clean paper.
No, this isn't your mother talking, but, hey, she had a point. The site is here for your pleasure and enjoyment, and if it is littered with leftovers, no one enjoys it as much. Oh yes, and if we catch you leaving trash behind, we'll send you to your room.
<7ff<wd<?tt appropriate trash barrels or recycling depots, We have information tents at either end of the site, and roving Green Team volunteers who know the site layout intimately. These people can help. In fact, they could use your help: volunteer for the Green Team, and become actively involved in ensuring not only the cleanliness of the festival site, but also in educating the general public about sorting their trash appropriately and about environmental awareness in general. Call Chinook Theatre (448-9000) or, if you're reading this during festival hours, ask at the info tent. Watt,

Traffic congestion and parking are notoriously bad throughout Old Strathcona for much of the summer, and during the festival, driving and parking conditions are next to impossible. There are many neighbourhood bicycle lock ups on and near the site. Edmonton Bicycle Commuters offer a centrally located Fringe bicycle lock-up at the corner of 83 Ave and 103 Street, staffed by volunteers and free of charge!

And there are three major bus routes to get you to and from the site which we detail below. We also remind you of the Edmonton Transit information line (421-4636), and suggest that the few extra minutes it may take you by journeying along a bus route is far less time than you'll spend circling Old Strathcona for a parking spot and then walking the mile and a half to the festival site from wherever you find a spot.... C<Wt&ljPwM ways the festival could improve in its attempts to reduce, reuse, recycle and re-think, please talk to us about it. Give us a call at 448-9000 or, even better, write the idea down, and send it to us: Chinook Theatre 10329-83 Avenue Edmonton, Alberta, T6E 2C6. We'd love to hear from you. Thank you.

PPLAUSE 0 Skt^/ As the volunteer coordinator, I have the exhilarating task of coordinating our volunteer core - the individuals who willingly dedicate their time, energy and skills to the Fringe Theatre Event. Without them, we could not successfully stage such a monstrous community gala. In appreciation, it is my goal to provide positive, rewarding experiences for each of our volunteers. Thus far, my position has been a fulfilling one. I continually look forward to meeting and working alongside these special individuals. Unfortunately, time and space does not allow me to list each and every name. However, it does allow me to name our notably dedicated volunteer Team Leaders. What is a Team Leader you ask? The undeniable fact that the Fringe has grown so over the years demands that a crew of 1000 volunteers be divided into 11 separate teams. The following Team Leaders are especially committed volunteers who give their hearts to ensure that volunteers are scheduled, organized, supported and rightfully acknowledged throughout their volunteer experience. (We apologize for names that have not made the list due to printing deadlines!. Should you spot a volunteer on-site (and it will be difficult to attend the Fringe without doing so) be sure to give them a smile. They deserve it! Thanks also to our Assistant Volunteer Coordinator Lee Ann Keple for doing a terrific job! Happy Fringing! Volunteer Coordinator
