Show Notes
In a way, the reinvention of performing arts in the age of coronavirus fits right in with the founding spirit of the St. Lou Fringe Fest. Now in its ninth season, the festival draws its inspiration from mid-20th-century Scotland, where avant garde artists responded to a more traditional festival by setting up makeshift venues in alleys and streets — anywhere they could connect with an audience. Now places like couches and closets are among the best and safest spots to do so.
