"It's not enough to have a great Fringe show...You have to sell your show!"

The world of Fringe Festivals is truly fascinating. Artists from around the world work hard all year round writing, performing and promoting their shows at festivals across the world. It's a labour of love and a world that many local artists learn about at the Saskatoon Fringe Festival. 

Our city's Fringe Festival is produced by Saskatoon's 25th Street Theatre and its Executive and Artistic Director, Anita Smith, can't wait for it to begin. She takes listeners behind the scenes of this year's festival to highlight some of the amazing artists who will be performing in theatres and as buskers, as well as other events taking place during the 10 days including the Thelma Pepper Art Walk and the Baby Busker Program. 

Anita is one of my favourite people in the world and I know her passion for the arts and our community will connect with you! I hope this bonus episode gets you excited for the Fringe and maybe see you at a play...or most likely the Food Trucks:)
