About
Portfringe

More than theater. This is Fringe. 

Since 2011, PortFringe has been pushing the boundaries of the performing arts in Maine, celebrating the weird, wild, and wonderful, and giving artists from Maine and beyond a space and community in which to innovate and share unique experiences with a diverse audience.

Please note: PortFringe performances may contain adult themes, and are not suitable for all audiences.

MAKE A
DONATION

When you give to Fringe, you support a community that takes big bucks and beer tents out of the Fringe equation – and focuses instead on building relationships and a community that MATTERS.

PortFringe is all about that community – emphasizing our artists and experimenting with format in ways that will continue to delight audiences and help our community stay strong, whatever comes our way.
