Fodor's Expert Review Prague Fringe Festival

There's a limited amount of English-language theater in Prague throughout the year. But in May and June, the Czech capital is awash with comedians, actors, dancers, musicians, mime artists, and all manner of other performers from all over the world. Since its inception in 2002, the Prague Fringe has become a major date on the fringe festival circuit, attracting visiting acts from the United Kingdom, the United States, New Zealand, Australia, and all over Europe. The venues are scattered around Malá Strana; performances, which range from Shakespeare to avant-garde cabaret, are staggered so that you could conceivably see five a day.
