A thousand thank yous to those who joined last night’s Ottawa Fringe fundraiser. In all, Stiff Quickies raised over $1500 for the non-profit Festival (and no one has even found the key to count that Tip the Fringe! box yet…)
For that drunk curious man shouting “IS THIS ON YOUTUBE?” in a dark theatre: here’s where you can find the filmmakers online.
The Ottawa Fringe Festival presents: Stiff Quickies. A night of short films & tall drinks at Arts Court Theatre. Join others at 7:00pm to open the bar and get to your seats by 7:30pm. Don’t let go of your drinks. A couple intermissions will allow for refills and socializing (but seriously, head straight for the bar because everyone else is). And remember what you’re drinking for–charity. For the love of charity. See you Friday.
Volunteers see the Festival for free. Rather, every 4-hour shift is a show pass for you. With the vibe around Arts Court during 10 days of June, it’s no surprise that many volunteers find the energy to contribute daily shifts (and see shows every day).
Several new positions and projects have been created this year. See: 2013 volunteer application. This year’s t-shirts will be coloured… oh nevermind, I can’t tell you yet.
With any questions, contact Louisa Haché using volunteer@ottawafringe.com.
The Ottawa Fringe Festival is seeking individuals who will contribute to the Festival’s communications team. These seasonal positions span several weeks part-time during May, June, and July, and may require full-time availability during official Festival dates (June 19th through July 1st). An honorarium will be provided based on qualifications. See job descriptions below:

Thank you so much to all of you who joined us for the 2013 Ottawa Fringe Festival lottery gathering at the Royal Oak Laurier. It was fantastic to see familiar and new faces together celebrating over their wins and hugging it out over their bad luck.
Wait-list applicants, please do not despair. BYOV applications will be available in the new year.
And now, the line-up for the 2013 Ottawa Fringe Festival (including early-bird and Canadian Association of Fringe Festival winners):
