With 300 some odd events a good bit of the fun of the Fringe Fest is trying to figure out what is going on where. It was pretty obvious why the huge crowd was looking up at the HSBC building. Bandaloop is a sensation. We wandered by the Xerox Building and saw people filing into the Auditorium for TheaterRocs Showcase. Funny how mainstream drag queens are today. The MCs of this citywide theater group roundup were billed as two of Rochester’s most beloved personalities.
We missed “Ole,” the Blackfriars production of a Lorca/Dali play, because we hadn’t deciphered the Fringe handbook in time. Outside the packed Magic Chrystal Spiegeltent at Main and Gibbs we heard that a silent disco was going on inside but it sounded more like a circus. We might have to buy tickets to find out.
