Busking at the Edmonton Fringe 2005.

Jugglepants · 08-05-05, 12:54 PM

I've done many an indoor show at the fringe and now I want to break out and do a street show. It's a new facet of my performing ability that has left me quaking in my boots... well airwalks... I'm not much of a boot man... so yeah ...any tips would be most helpful. Thanks much.

Thanks for the link, I have checked out the library and it is a handy resource. What I'm really curious about was if anyone had any tips or interesting stories from past fringes in Edmonton.

Thanks, any idea how fast these permits go? How early should I show up, Lineups, etc.

well how fast they go is dependent on when people get in line it is also hard to tell if you are to late there is one line for buskers CS a few types of venders so if you gey in line early you will likly be behind 50+people this could suck for acts coming from far away
