EXPECT TO MEET A FRINGE PERFORMER ON MASS AVE
Performers are shameless about promoting their shows. If they don’t have a fan base or marketing budget, they will talk to every person they run into on the street and in every café.
It can be scary to talk to random people so be sweet and listen.
You can always buy them a drink or meet the performers at the Beer Tent or at The District bar.
Matt Sovern, aka Busker Boy., will play the Artful Piano outside District Theatre today and over the weekend. Expect to see a lot of performers hanging out.
