that is the talk of kid town. Mimosas and coffee will be available in the
Spiegeltent Bar. (You’re welcome, mom and dad.) Note: Disco Kids is NOT Silent Disco

Indulge in an afternoon of pure delight in a truly spectacular setting. This classic tradition with Fringe style features dainty finger sandwiches (crusts off) from Orange Glory, British-style scones, Hurd Orchards strawberry jam, lashings of clotted cream, and traditional pastries and cakes. One lump or two? Napkins on laps and pinkies up. It's afternoon tea with a beautifully set table complete with proper china and all the trimmings. Delightfully posh with a definitive fringey twist.

Other People’s Shows is part genius, part drunk parrot: smart comedy with a shot of shameless mockery. You pick a show out of the Fringe Guide, and Unleashed! Improv will perform its interpretation of it on the spot – inspired only by the show’s description. Fringe performers will finally get a chance to see their own shows! But that’s not all. In the spirit of borrowing other people’s material, the twisted team will also interact with the audience, staging hilarious contests, show-downs, and feats of comedy strength based on TV and film favorites. A huge hit at previous Fringes, this year’s late-night version in the spectacular Spiegeltent will be legendary!

SHOTSPEARE puts the
“Lit” in Literature! Five sword-wielding actors, one lucky audience member, a ton of booze, the
Wheel of Soliloquy, and an entire work of Shakespeare – all in 80 minutes.
Equal parts bacchanal and classical theater, Shotspeare’s raucous adaptation of
ROMEO & JULIET takes the world's most beloved playwright, soaks him in
beer, and flips him on his head. You may know the Bard, but you’ve never
experienced him like THIS, Rochester!

A total sell-out every year! The spectacular Spiegeltent is the place for our signature, giant dance party with a decidedly Fringe-y twist. You won't hear a thing until you slip on a set of headphones. With three channels manned by live DJs, you choose your music and mood at the touch of a button. Hugely popular at Bonnaroo and Burning Man, it's an unforgettable experience you have to see – and not hear – to believe.
