Dublin Fringe Festival 2008
Published 3rd Sep 2008 by Felix Pellefigues

16-days & nights of envelope-pushing performing arts & music!
Start Date: 06 September 2008- End Date: 21 September 2008- Venue: Dublin City Centre.

Get kidnapped. Be paranoid. Savour unexpected, magic moments. A giant man-filled test tube, pimped-up secret Dublin gardens, contortionists, acrobats and a JCB Digger ballet are among those ripping up and rebuilding Dublin city this September as part of the 14th annual Dublin Fringe Festival.

This annually anticipated, ram-packed line-up of contemporary performing arts mixes up more music, including the world renowned Spiegeltent, a gorgeous tent of mirrors, which this year will be located at the intimate and magical Iveagh Gardens and renamed for 2008 as the Hennessy Spiegeltent, which will sit happily alongside a brand new venue and younger sister tent, The Bosco Tent in its own ‘Secret Garden’.

Attracting 12 participating countries from around the globe spanning four continents to showcase their cutting edge performance art, audiences will get to experience the likes of Ireland’s first flash mob opera, comedian Tommy Tiernan directing his cousins Niamh and Eleanor in the show Help!
