Now Booking for FringeBYOV in OCTOBER! As you may have heard, this year our FringeBYOV (Bring Your Own Venue) segment will return in October - across ALL FIVE BOROUGHS! And we want to make it the biggest celebration of indie performance the city has ever seen! 

So we're sending this everyone in the fringe family: 

ARTISTS | ALUMNI | AUDIENCE | AMBASSADORS

Even if YOU don't have a show, it's likely you know someone who does! We'd appreciate your help spreading the word that there are two ways any show can be a part of the 2019 Fringe: 

#1. If you've already booked a venue for October, great! Any FringeNYC alumni association member can REGISTER A SHOW. If you're not a FringeNYC alumni association member, just fill out this form to be connected with an alumni who can register your show.  

#2. If you're looking for a venue, we're proud to announce the REGISTERED VENUES below - all of whom still have slots available during the festival. Whether you want to do one night of stand-up or a month-long run of a full musical, there is a venue waiting to hear from you! 

BUT YOU MUST ACT FAST to book a slot at one of these venues.

STAGE DIRECTORS AND CHOREOGRAPHERS FOUNDATION IS ACCEPTING NOMINATIONS FOR THE 2019 ZELDA FICHANDLER AWARD FOR A DIRECTOR OR CHOREOGRAPHER WHO IS TRANSFORMING THEATRE IN THE CENTRAL REGION
 
Nominations Accepted Through July 2, 2019
$5,000 Unrestricted Award
 
(New York, NY, June 4, 2019) Stage Directors and Choreographers Foundation (SDCF), the not-for-profit foundation of Stage Directors and Choreographers Society (SDC), announced today that nominations for the Zelda Fichandler Award, for a director or choreographer who is transforming theatre in the Central Region, are now being accepted through July 2, 2019.  Named for a giant of the regional theatre movement, the Zelda Fichandler Award recognizes directors and choreographers who are in the heart of their creative lives; who demonstrate great accomplishment to-date and promise for the future; and who have made prominent achievements in the field with singular creativity and artistry and deep investment in a particular place outside of the New York arena. The Award is not to honor lifetime achievement. The goal of the Fichandler Award is to encourage those artists who have made a commitment to creating regional theatre.
 
Established in 2009, the Zelda Fichandler Award is SDCF’s first award devoted to regional theatre in the United States. With this award, SDCF acknowledges the profound impact the founders of regional theatre have had on the field, honoring their legacy through the recognition of the extraordinary individuals who are transforming the national arts landscape with their unique and creative work.
