FringeNYC on Fourth - A FABNYC Project
FABLogo FAB paves the way for Manhattan's only official cultural district to become a leading destination for arts and culture activity. We will be closing down East 4th St between Bowery and 2nd Ave for FringeNYC on Fourth and creating a FringeAL FRESCO theater haven for audiences and artists alike.

Restaurants will be extending table service into the street, you can picnic between shows or soak up the live, outdoor entertainment. FringeNYTeasers take place daily from 3pm - 5pm. In addition, with our sustainability program in full swing there will be plenty of opportunities for you to go green and stay green. Find out more at: www.fabnyc.org.

FringeNYC will celebrate its 16th Anniversary August 10th - 26th, 2012.

FringeNYC? Although FringeNYC is a production of The Present Theatre Company, Inc., it takes:
75,000 audience members
5,000 artists
2,000 registered volunteers
1,200 performances
200 shows
20 venues
16 days
15 dollar advance tickets and
2 full-time employees

to make FringeNYC happen.

​

We do this? Good question! In 1997, our budget was $74,000. Today, it's more than a million dollars. We must seek and secure support from donors in order to "bridge the gap" between rising costs and our desire to keep ticket prices low. Your donation helps us grow to meet the challenges of the future!  Support of FringeNYC has a tremendous impact on indie theatre. We appreciate it!
