Welcome to the Wandsworth Arts Fringe 2016 Programme

In May this year Wandsworth’s nooks and crannies are going to be filled with some of the most exciting and dynamic live arts events. You could find yourself in a Russian summer house in The Bedford pub, watching a medieval puppet show in Heathbrook Park or on a Midnight Run through Nine Elms. Whether you enjoy street performances, family workshops, exhibitions, music or dance, there is something for everyone.

This brochure and the wandsworthfringe.com website offer an easy way to see what is on, when and where it’s on, and includes info and links to book tickets. You’ll find many of the events are free to attend although booking is advised.

New and often experimental work is shown in a huge variety of indoor and outdoor venues during the Fringe - it’s a special time to get out and try something new. Many of the events are drop in and accessible. We are particularly proud to have BSL interpreted performances this year. We encourage you to choose an event or performance you haven’t heard of before in a new venue you haven’t visited. Experience energetic, contemporary creativity in places you wouldn’t expect.

Thanks, as ever, to our fantastic, diligent steering group, Enable Leisure & Culture Arts Team, Cath Mattos and an ambitious team of young producers who have worked hard to realise this year’s Fringe.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Cllr Jonathan Cook Deputy Leader of Wandsworth Council
