The Sprites.

The Sprites

A swimming sensation in their own life time (just don't tell them that), the Sprites are desperate to audition for a passing carnival, or anything really. This tongue in cheek comedy and wet acrobatic show performed on, in and around FRINGE WORLD's very own Mermaid tank, is not to be missed. It runs every Saturday and Sunday of the Festival at 7.15pm.

Blue Water Vaudeville

The FRINGE WORLD mermaid tank grows up in 2018! Blue Water Vaudeville is the Festival’s first after dark under water micro cabaret. Featuring burlesques beauties, swimming sirens and obtuse oddities.
