Why Fringe Theatre Is Vital?

The reviews on this site show my work as a theatre historian. Besides my doctoral research, I large part of my research occurred when I worked as a theatre reviewer for the London Fringe Theatre between 2011 to 2013. I began my research in theatre entrepreneurship to understand how my students could successfully work in the creative industries. From this viewpoint, I discovered that London's 'best-kept secret' was its 550+ fringe theatre companies and organisations that fed the imagination and the economic prosperity of its artists. Even in the most difficult times, I believe its worth exploring the implications of looking at the inventiveness of the companies and schools who continue to create work 'on the fringe' of their mainstream cultures.
