FringeNYC 2012 Encore Series

Running September 7th-30th at Soho Playhouse & Players Theatre

Pulp Shakespeare, a delightful take-off on Pulp Fiction as written by the Bard; Independents, a superb musical from Yale;
and 5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche, a hilarious comedy that's my favorite FringeNYC 2012 show, are all part of the Encore Series

This year's FringeNYC festival ended on August 26th, but that's not the end of a number of its shows.

There were quite a few productions worthy of going on to commercial runs, and it's a sure bet at least some of them will.

And more immediately, 19 FringeNYC shows have been extended to run September 7th-30th, with the performances taking place at the West Village's The Soho Playhouse (upstairs mainstage), The Soho Playhouse's Huron Club (downstairs cozy theatre), and The Players Theatre.
