The Rogue:
Sparking Inspiration & Igniting Creativity!
"Think about it as this swirling circus of originality and creativity that magically appears once a year to tickle, inspire and fire the imagination ... unabashedly celebrating and stretching the wonders of the possible."
The
Rogue celebrates the independent performer and artist by providing the
opportunity to showcase works in a friendly, affordable, and creative
setting. The Rogue Performance Festival is modeled after the fringe
festivals which have become popular
worldwide. More on the Rogue can be found on our
FAQ page.
Preparations
are already underway for the Rogue Performance Festival 2007!
Applications will be posted here from July 23.
There will be links on the
"Applications"
page to the various components for those of you who are interested in
performing or showing at the 2007 Rogue.
Surf the site and perhaps read how we did over the years on our Media Page and how our previous participants fared in previous years on the Rogue Awards page. You may also want to check out similar festivals on our Festival Year Page.
The Rogue Performance Festival: A Short History
2002
The first Rogue Performance Festival was powered by Theatre J'Nerique at the Sanctuary Stage Theater in March 2002 in downtown Fresno, California. This location offered two separate venues in the same building. The venues were called the Rogue Mainstage and the Rogue Cafe respectively. The first year attracted 16 performing companies and brought in an audience of about 1200 over a 6 day period.
2003
The 2003 Rogue was moved to the historical and cultural Tower District of Fresno, CA. The Rogue Mainstage was housed at the Starline performance venue. The Rogue Cafe was hosted under a tent on the back patio of the Veni Vidi Vici bistro.
That year the Rogue doubled the attendance from the previous year. 25 performing groups were featured and attracted performers from San Francisco and South Dakota.
2004
For 2004 we added another Mainstage venue at Club Fred. We also introduced the Rogue Gallery component featuring the visual arts and also introduced the Rogue BYOV (Bring Your Own Venue) component to further expand the growing inclusive nature of the festival.
The 2004 Rogue broke all previous records with an attendance of close to 4000 and showcasing 40 performance groups and featured the work of 10 visual artists. Performers came as far as San Diego, Sacramento, and London, England.
2005
The 2005
Rogue added Rogue Film as a full component. The festival attracted over
60 performance groups and visual artists. Participants came from as far
as Los Angeles, London, San Francisco and
Vancouver,
Canada for a 9 day event.
Including the BYO component, the 2005 festival offered12 separate venues bringing in close to 5500 audience members and was even featured in the New York Times as a travel destination.
Watch Out for the 2006 festival!
The Rogue is fast growing into a Festival that will encompass every aspect of the arts. Become a part of it!

March 2-11 is Rogue Performance Festival Week!!
RULES of the ROGUE
1. ALL
PERFORMANCES WILL BEGIN ON TIME!
Certain performers and companies will
allow latecomers up to 15 minutes into the show and certain companies
will not. This will be indicated in this Rogue Map, website and at the
venues. (Audience tip: Please arrive early. The performers have worked
hard on their pieces and it is RUDE, INCONSIDERATE and very PROVINCIAL
to show disrespect for their efforts … it breaks concentration and
affects a performance drastically!)
2. TICKET SALES FOR EACH
PERFORMANCE WILL BEGIN HALF AN HOUR BEFORE THE PERFORMANCE BEGINS!
(Audience tip: Please arrive early. Which brings us to our next
rule…)
3. ALL TICKET SALES ARE FINAL.
No Refunds, no exchanges, and no excuses. (Audience tip: Please arrive
early. Ticket prices are cheap and 100% of the box-office sales go to
the artists and performers.)
4. ALL PERFORMANCES ARE GENERAL
ADMISSION SEATING. (Audience
tip: Please arrive early. This way you can get the best seats in the
house.)
5. ROGUE TIME IS THE OFFICIAL
TIME! Official ROGUE
CLOCKS are on display in front of ALL Performance Venues. (Audience tip:
Please arrive early. You also may want to sync your watches to ROGUE
TIME so that you can plan your entertainment day and not miss a show.)
6. HAVE A GOOD TIME!
