| Fringe Wait List | 2008 Lottery Results & Wait List. This is the list of the Standard Venue performers who were selected at the Fringe lottery along with the Wait List. If a performer withdraws we will go to the next performer on the Wait List for that category (Local, National, International) and offer them that performance slot. There is no way to predict how many performers will withdraw. If they withdraw before May 11, 2008 then 50% of their performance fee will be returned. Performers sometimes withdraw even after this deadline. It is difficult to add performers after the Fringe Program goes to the printer which is in early August since they will miss out on this important Fringe promotional tool. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
