Get ready for Beverly Fringe Fest at The Bower! We are taking over the town with independent theater that is fast, loud, a little chaotic, and completely unpredictable.

Catch two actors playing twenty characters in Popcorn Falls, or watch a classic Moliere play get totally wrecked by improv and physical clowning in Tartuffified. Experience a beautiful, raw blend of monologue and magical realism in Come And Get Start Over, or see a fully improvised Golden Age musical created right in front of your eyes in The Sound of Improvised Music. If you love a good laugh, our Fringe Comedy Nights feature the absolute best local stand-up and improv groups. Plus, you can ditch the traditional theater rules entirely at Gentile Brewing for Bard Crawl, a loud, pay-what-you-will Shakespeare drinking game where you vote on the show.

No dress codes and no hushed silence, just incredible live art.
