Fringed out at Brighton!
England’s largest and oldest annual Fringe Festival sadly concluded yesterday. The Brighton Fringe is just a WONDERFUL festival. It allows you to see such a spread of artistic endeavour without the mania of Edinburgh.
Sadly we lose the wonderful Holly Payton as she steps down as Operations Manager after six glorious years at the Brighton Festival Fringe. Holly is moving to take on a wider role in the ever growing fringe industry aiming to be the lead feed to improve collaboration between festivals and supporting organisations which is sadly disparate at the moment. I hope to catch an interview with Holly in the near future so we can all learn more about her activities as she is THE lady to watch in the future.
As for ourselves, we managed to spend some time in Brighton filming and meeting customers as well as enjoying the wonderful mix of regency heritage and bohemian ambiance that is Brighton. It’s been a whirlwind of activity promoting Virtual Flyers and interviewing so many talented performers out there. For me, the best part has been promoting and reading customer’s 10 Questions. Each one exposing a network of knowledge and growing talent that is just a fascinating to read.
Sadly we say farewell to the Brighton Festival Fringe for another year. Roll on May next year, we can’t wait….
