By Guest Blogger: Kathy Rumleski, Trouper Coordinator at the London Fringe Festival

Troupers are the dedicated volunteers who ensure the London Fringe Theatre Festival runs without a glitch. Helping with box office, ushering, runner, and assistant duties, Troupers pound the pavement each day of the Festival to keep independent theatre and art alive in London.

This year’s Festival runs June 6 to 17, 2012 in various downtown venues. The Fringe features performing arts companies (including local, provincial, national, and international performers) displaying their talents in almost 300 different show times throughout the Festival. In addition to the fabulous theatre line-up, you can also expect to be amazed by the visual artists at Visual Fringe.

As a thank-you, Troupers receive:
– Coupons to see shows for FREE
– A FREE Trouper t-shirt
– A FREE Fringe BackerButton

To sign-up, check-out our application. Contact Kathy at troupers@londonfringe.ca with any questions.
