The Asheville Fringe Arts Festival takes place January 21-24, 2010. This is the annual multi-day and multiple venue performance extravaganza that asks artists
working in all types of genres and media (theatre, movement, music, spoken word, puppetry, spectacle, whatever!) to push their own boundaries and to present original and innovative performance art to a culturally adventurous audience. The festival is now in its eighth year.
Fringe Audio will be an immersive environment focused on sonic experimentation and surprises. Musicians, performers and composers will premiere and showcase new music and avant-garde ambient sounds. Among the lineup of audio artists featured for the two evenings will be Elisa Faires, Kimathy Moore, Xambuca featuring Chandra Shukla, Sturgeon Hoof featuring David Jones, Ivan Seng, Auracene featuring Liz Lang, Vincent Wrenn and the unique “shape note” singing of Western Caroline Sacred Harp Singers. A visual presentation by Megan McKissack and Jason Scott Furr and a butoh performance by Julie Becton Gillum.
Tickets: $10 for BMCM+AC members, seniors and students w/ID / $12 for all others
Free with Fringe Freak all-access Pass
