2026 FronteraFest Short Fringe
The Short Fringe is five different shows a night, each 25 minutes or less. Five shows from this week’s Tuesday – Friday shows will be selected for the Saturday Best of Week shows.

Tonight’s shows:
I Loved You Ever, by Pablo Munoz-Evers. A moment of Hamlet, re-imagined.

Mystery of the Super-Sparkly Diamond, by Alex Garza. This comedic solo performance pays tribute to the mystery and detective stories from novels and films. A necklace has been stolen, and it is up to Detective Bryson Jones to solve the mystery. Join Alex Garza as he performs a wacky collection of characters in a show to be enjoyed by all.

Fractured! Musical Fragments From a Fairy-Tale World, by Ellerieh Lin. This show includes selections from a musical work in progress created by Ellerieh Lin, performed by Marie Giorda and Ellerieh Lin.

The Cauldron by 1800CHANGEDMYLIFE. The improv troupe 1800CHANGEDMYLIFE performs the Cauldron, a long-form improv format that puts the audience in the driver’s seat from the start. We ask the audience for twenty words, which are written on a board for everyone to see. Over the next 25 minutes, our cast performs a fully improvised scene that must incorporate all twenty of those words in creative and surprising ways. Each time a word is spoken, it’s crossed off the board, so the audience can track the progress in real time. This structure builds playful tension and anticipation, as the crowd waits for their chosen words to appear. The end result is a high-energy, one-of-a-kind show where audience suggestions directly shape the story.

2 Night Stands, written and performed by Rosanna Turner. A One-Woman Bedroom Comedy. Spend a night (or two) laughing at the bedroom shenanigans of a woman who has had one-too-many one night stands. This solo show includes hilarious stories about Craigslist meet-cutes, the challenges of hooking up in a twin bed, and how to turn a one-night-stand into true love.

Pleaase note: we will not know whether all these shows are appropriate for those under 18 until noon on Tuesday, January 27. Call 512-479-7529 with questions, or email hydeparktheatre@gmail.com.
