Abstract

FRIGID NY was the second Fringe Festival to emerge in New York City, following the successful FringeNYC. Unlike FringeNYC, FRIGID adheres to the Canadian Association of Fringe Festivals, which includes using a lottery system (rather than adjudication) and allows participating artists/companies to keep their box office. This paper presents an overview of FRIGID NY, contextualizing it within the history of the Off-Off Broadway and Indie Theatre movements, and provides a case study of a production at FRIGID NY, demonstrating that FRIGID NY is on the Fringe of the Fringe.
