Call for Fringe Performances

INSPIRATION is what we do. CELEBRATION is how we do it.

Application Deadline: February 10, 2022

Northlands Storytelling Network is pleased to be offering virtual Fringe performance opportunities on April 29-30, 2022. In keeping with Fringe tradition, the sky is the limit for topics. If selected, you get to fill 55-minutes with any combination of story, song, dance, monologue, stand-up comedy, performance art, puppetry, etc. Fringe performers will be selected by a random drawing. Winners of the drawing will be notified no later than February 15. Carefully review the details below and consider putting it on the line at the Northlands Fringe-Fest!
DETAILS FOR SUBMISSION
  • Fringe submissions are open to all current Northlands members
  • You may apply for the Fringe and the Story Concert, but appear at only one event.
  • There is no monetary compensation or entrance fees. You will be provided with a raw video of your performance. (Note: if you want a "clean" video, there is an hourly charge for the extra editing work.)
  • Registration for your own Fringe is at no charge. If you want to attend any of the other Fringe shows, the standard registration fee of $5 applies. However, if you want to register for the full Fringe-Fest!, your discounted price is $25 (a code will be provided to you prior to registration)
  • Northlands provides Zoom. ALL other aspects (technical needs, additional publicity, etc.) are the responsibility of the performer
  • Performers are to report to Tech 15 minutes prior to their performance for any/all set-up including mic check
  • Any introduction to your story is to be considered part of the time limit for the performance
  • One submission per member – either solo or with partner/group
  • There are no 30-minutes Ruffles slots this year (See Concert Stories)
  • If you performed in 2021, you are not eligible to submit until 2023. This was done because of the number of submissions each year and to give all a chance at performing

  • Performers selected in the drawing will be notified by February 15, 2022
