The Fringe is played

Speaking of hubs and nodes. I’m declaring the Fringe Festival totally played. The surprising 5 minute shows and edgy performances are gone, and it’s all so predictable. Even the mermaids aren’t attracting children  – or fathers any more. And what’s with this rubbishy Hub? Glass? Has there been a single drink served in glass at the whole event? It’s finished. Let your grandmother know for next year if she’s spared for that long.

    Can I suggest skimpies night at the Merriwa Tavern? Same target audience (English tradies) the show is more edgy and plenty of beer.

    That the fringe is played might have more than a little to do with the old farts on the board,
