Fringe POP is a SPECIAL EVENT that merges short films with 10-minute plays for a dynamic event mixing projections and live performance to explore private vs. public space. Live performances are juxtaposed with short films exploring how we live and behave, both in public and in private.

FRINGE POP AT A GLANCE:

How do we experience public vs private space anymore? With a world of knowledge and connectivity in everyone’s pocket, does privacy even exist? What happens when what we think is private becomes public domain?

Fringe POP will feature two different evenings that explore private and public experiences through live performance and cinematic visions. Both events will bounce back and forth between mediums, blurring the lines of traditional theatre performance for an evening to both entertain and enlighten.

A total of four short films and four 10-minute plays will be screened and performed October 6 through 9, 2016 at the Logan Fringe Arts Space, 1358 Florida Ave NE, Washington, DC.

    The concept of mixing film, music and staged performance is something that is as rare as is inspiring. As a filmmaker with two films screening, it's a welcome and creative experience. Congratulations to the POP team for producing a successful festival and I hope to screen with you again.
