A Fringe Benefit

A Fringe Benefit is back and more daring, decadent, and deliciously unpredictable than before.

Last year, you joined ranks among ultimate theatre lovers and champions of bold art, to ring in the inaugural Fringe Benefit - a night so electrifying, so wildly unhinged, its legends can only be whispered about in good company.

The only thing better than reminiscing? Returning to the Arts Barns to discover more extraordinary creative encounters you’ll have to see to believe.

The cocktails are colder, the acts are bolder, and the evening will be buzzing with the kind of Fringe-fueled revelry that only insiders can handle (and your name’s first on our list)!

Loosen your tie, gloss your grin, and step inside a one-night-only speak-easy soiree to celebrate art, uplift rebellion, and fund Fringe Theatre.
