The Capital Fringe Festival introduces new, risk-taking art, and non-traditional performances including theater, dance, music, poetry, puppetry with more than 500 different shows at a variety of venues around Washington, DC. Get a glimpse of what to expect of some of these offbeat performances. Note: The following descriptions were provided with permission by the Capital Fringe.

Cautionary Tales for Adults includes two mini-musicals with songs ranging from smoky cabaret to frothy pop. First, an unhinged librarian teaches several unsuspecting adults about the injustices of life. Next, a high-strung children’s TV star learns valuable lessons of her own like, “being pretty is all that matters”. Deliciously inappropriate and filled with guilty pleasures.
