FREE EVENT | Registration required
The Mississauga Multilingual Fringe Festival is a first for SAWITRI Theatre Group! Come and help launch the festival at the Kick-Off Event on Sunday, August 8th, 2021 at the Small Arms Inspection Building at 6 pm.
A first for SAWITRI Theatre Group, this festival is a part of the North American fringe family. Inspired by the great fringe festival of Edinburgh, and the Toronto Fringe Festival closer to home, this will be the first multilingual fringe festival in Canada focused on the many languages of India – Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, Punjabi, Tamil, and English too.
Fringes are uncensored, non-juried theatre festivals, bringing together emerging and established artists alike to tell their stories on stage. The participants to the MMFF will be decided on a non-juried basis through a lottery process. MMFF will promote and model inclusivity, diversity, and multiculturalism, and will endeavor to incorporate them into all aspects of our fringe festival.
- Cheer the participants as they make a pitch on their presentation
- Meet Theatre lovers from Mississauga, Toronto, and the GTA
- Enjoy the music by our DJ and dance if your heart desires
- Cash Bar will be available onsite
