Voicebox: Brighton Fringe

Brighton Fringe

Brighton Fringe takes place every May and is a great place to spend the May bank holidays and the summer half-term break. This vast celebration of all things creative has grown out of, and is inspired by, home-grown talent. More than 50% of participants are based in Brighton and Hove. The festival is committed to helping the arts flourish and are completely open-access, which means anyone can put on a Brighton Fringe event. No selection criteria are imposed on participants. This enables both new and established performers to try out new work and take risks. They also help artists develop professionally through a range of workshops, mentoring and bursary programmes. A wide array of critically acclaimed shows and performers also appear at Brighton Fringe each year, drawn by the huge number of appreciative audience members who attend every year.

    Krater Comedy Club

    by Emily Steer Voice Team

    Word of warning: if a venue suggests that, just perhaps, you need a plus one to not feel like a bit of a ninny at their event, they're probably correct. But, with such stellar comedians, I easily forgot I was on my tod at Krater Comedy Club.

    Julius Caesar

    by Jo Nead Contributor

    A strange (and strictly 18+) twist on a Shakespeare classic that won't be to everyone's taste. Well, we are in Brighton after all.

    JoJo Bellini's Kitchen Cabaret

    by Elena Losavio Contributor

    JoJo Bellini gave an amusing performance; singing along to Tom Jones songs, doing a bit of cooking, and captivating the audience along the way.

    A Talent For Lying

    by Elena Losavio Contributor

    An immersive fantasy about romance and misconnections that's thought-provoking and intimate, but could have been pushed a little further.

    Tin Foil and Finger-painting: the things you don't consider for a Brighton Fringe show

    by [Deleted User]

    Three things we never thought taking a show to Brighton Fringe would entail: learning to create a website from scratch, placing digital handprints all over Jimmy Savile's face, and running around Battersea Park holding tin foil underneath an actor's chin.

    Neil Frost can be found at Brighton Fringe this May, performing his one man mine show, The Story of the Nervous Man.
