Cast Yourself in a Fringe Festival Show!


Once upon a time...
You were in a Fringe show!

Cast yourself in Method Machine's production of Grimm's Mad Tales: A mash up of flash mob, story slam, costume parade and street theater. Mad Tales is a spectacular, outdoor, large-scale promenade headlining event at the First Niagara Rochester Fringe Festival this fall.

Method Machine’s production of Mad Tales of Rochester uses the stories of the Brothers Grimm, a provocative collection of 209 tales for children and adults, including such classics as Snow White, Hansel & Gretel, Rapunzel and Cinderella.

Costumed in colors inspired by the text, “Red as Blood, White as Snow, Black as Crow,” a cast of hundreds perform while the audience wanders the promenade in choose-your-own-adventure style. The cast are community members from all walks of life: students, adults, seniors, special interest groups, ethnic communities, families, friends, roommates and more!

Performances are Sept. 23 & 24 from 6:00 PM - 6:40 PM

Rehearsal Choices (choose one):
Sept. 10 @ Noon – 2 PM at RIT
Sept. 11 @ Noon – 2 PM at RIT
Sept. 18 @ Noon – 2 PM at Lutheran Church, 111 N. Chestnut St., Rochester, NY 14604

So, go ahead. Cast yourself! Log onto https://grimmsmadtales.com and follow the prompts. Hope to see you there!
