GUEST,MikeofNorthumbria (off base) What a fringe contributes to a festival (86* d) RE: What a fringe contributes to a festival 23 Jun 06


Hi Folks,

Two brief observations:

1) I love festival fringe events. They can be variable in quality, but at their best they can do more to delight, surprise and enlighten the unwary listener than some of the polished but predictable offerings on the official programme.

2) A method of ensuring relative equity in singarounds has been tried at Whitby in the past. A volunteer at the door gives out raffle or cloakroom tickets to all entrants who wish to sing. The MC then calls the numbers in strict rotation.

Wassail!
