Hollywood Fringe Festival

If you really want to immerse yourself in local and international theater, you can’t miss the Hollywood Fringe Festival in June. Since 2010, this series has specialized in shows from emerging writers and performers, and it now boasts hundreds of shows—most around $15 a ticket or less, and some for absolutely nothing. Expect one-person shows, new musicals, comedies and edgy dramas to descend on Hollywood once again from June 13 through 30.
