Anyone thinking that the Sydney Fringe Festival is being taken over by regional university graduates wouldn’t be far from the truth with 10 productions in the program featuring theatre/media graduates from Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Bathurst. Couple CSU’s talented graduates with a multidisciplinary cultural showcase and the Sydney Fringe Festival can live up to its promise, offering the thrill of discovery and the opportunity to experience independent new works that are tangible and authentic. Theatre/media graduates are demonstrating their eclectic talents as actors, writers, directors and producers at this festival. “Charles Sturt University graduates thrive in this kind of environment,” says School of Communication and Creative Industries senior lecturer Dr Jerry Boland. “The Sydney Fringe Festival is continually growing and it’s fantastic that our past and present students can contribute to its success.” The Sydney Fringe Festival runs from Friday10 to Friday 24 September.
