Over a hundred acts will perform during three weeks of the festival of theatre, dance, music, and visual art.
Larry Beau and The Peepshow Stars are one of the acts booked to play the Spiegeltent at the Dublin Fringe Festival. The show is surreal and erotic and features an android choir and tap dancers.
We're all ex peep show stars. We're stuck in purgatory for a sentence.
The Dublin Fringe Festival is in its 11th year and has a new director, Wolfgang Hoffman, who says,
The Fringe is really about showcasing new and exciting work.
Irish audiences will also get the chance to see 'Rumble', which puts a modern hip hop twist on the tale of Romeo and Juliet and has already taken the Fringe First awards in Edinburgh.
Anyone hoping to catch a performance of 'Adrenalin', directed by Karl Shiels, will have to catch a blacked out coach to an unknown destination.
Among the thirty venues across the city where events and performances will take place are a bed and breakfast and a mystery warehouse.
Organisers of the Dublin Fringe Festival say audiences should expect the unexpected.
