The Chicago Fringe Festival unites daring theatregoers with emerging and boundary-pushing local, national and international performing artists while seeking to engage non-traditional audiences through the commitment to low ticket prices and outreach into artistically under-served communities. New to this year’s Festival is a Kids Fringe, with performances geared to younger audiences, along with free workshops and activities (September 5 and 6, 12 and 13, from 12 - 4 p.m.).

Chicago Fringe Festival performances take place in various venues in Jefferson Park, including Congregational Church of Jefferson Park, Windy City Music Theatre, and the Jefferson Playhouse. For more information, please visit chicagofringe.org.

Passes with a discounted ticket price are available when attending multiple performances: four-show pass is $36, ten-show pass is $80 and an unlimited pass is $175.
