In our final episode we ask: can you institutionalise experimentation? And how can Melbourne Fringe give artists a safe place to fail, as well as to succeed? So far, our focus has been looking back on Fringe’s past searching for clues about its future. As we wrap up this podcast, we throw open the question: what should Fringe look like in another 40 years, and should it even exist?

The future of Fringe

How do different people show up at Melbourne Fringe and what's at stake for them? How has the Fringe held space for First Nations artists, cultural diversity, queerness and disabled people? And does having an open access festival actually make you open and accessible? In this episode we talk about the constantly changing realm of identity and equity, and explore what class has to do with art and what art has to do with life.

The identity of Fringe

Over the festival’s 40 years, one of Fringe’s most distinctive practices has been the way it bleeds into public and sometimes private space, in order to engage audiences and offer artists unique and often playful, creative challenges. In today's episode we talk about the places, spaces and neighbourhoods of Melbourne Fringe. We look at the Festival Parade on Brunswick Street in Fitzroy, and the unusual places that have hosted events and exhibitions.
