Fringe Festival Preview Event

Established in 2005, the Kansas City Fringe Festival has grown into an 11-day celebration of theater, visual arts, film, dance, and music. This year’s edition runs from Thursday, July 17, through Sunday, July 27, 2014, at 13 venues around the city.

  • Brother John, a 2013 Best of the Fest winner, delivers a one-man show of intriguing storytelling full of classic tunes by and little known facts about Sam Cooke.
