Why Christian Loves Fringe and the Arts
What’s the best thing about the Fringe Festival?
It allows people that are interested in theatre and maybe not so interested in it but would like to see some without having to kill themselves to go out and fine good accessible theatre.
Whats the #1 reason people should see your show?
Because it has a message very relevant to today’s issues and I hope it will really bring it into the forefront of peoples thoughts.
Do you have any Opening Night Rituals?
Nope. Just go out there and do it
What are the craziest performance conditions you’ve ever had to work under?
We once were doing a performance outside and it rained that day so, whilst it rained, we had to move the entire set inside and do the performance in an entirely new space.
How did you get involved in the arts?
I got involved in the arts kind of by accident. My Latin teacher who was one of the Shakespeare directions at the time, needed help with doing accents and she heard I could do them so I came to help out and than they asked me to try out being in the show and loved it ever since.
