Why: We want more young people involved in the Fringe! Come out to some shows and spread the word to your friends. Your opinions matter, and we want you to help share what impacts you most. Here's what past NextGen Fringers had to say:
"I got to connect with other young theatre lovers like myself which helped me feel super welcomed and involved in the theatre community!"
"It was a really great experience. This was my first Fringe where I saw more than 1 show. The food trucks and vendors were awesome too! I also loved how most of the shows were walking distance to each other."
"I had an amazing time going to shows on my own AND with friends. Getting the 6 show pass was exactly what I needed to go out and see shows I might not have considered seeing otherwise."
"It was so cool to discover different Winnipeg theatres and have the chance to watch different performances...Being able to learn more about local artists and support them was great!"
"I was able to visit the Fringe with my family as well as some of my friends. We all really enjoyed browsing the vendor market, seeing shows and getting some great food at the food trucks. The Fringe Festival was a perfect way to spend my days and helped to make my summer a bit more exciting."
"It was a really fun time! I saw a bunch of incredible shows, a lot of which I probably wouldn’t have if I wasn’t in the program... I loved being at Fringe this year, and can’t wait for the next one!" Registration for 2025 is open until June 23 - sign up here!
