Performers for the standard venues at the 2008 San Francisco Fringe Festival were selected at a public lottery at EXIT Theatre on February 1, 2008. Performers were selected in the International, National and Local categories, along with wait lists in each category in case performers are unable to perform. Applications to perform in non-traditional fringe venues are being accepted until April 30, 2008. CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO ON NON-TRADITIONAL FRINGE VENUE APPLICATIONS. We will update this list as performers drop out and performers from the wait lists take their places.
