First Friday Fun: The Fringe Edition

Sure, you can wander through art gallery after art gallery tonight. The same places you always go, with the same cheap wine you always drink. Or, you can take advantage of the fact that there's always a First Friday during the Live Arts and Fringe Festivals, and there are plenty of free or pay-what-you-can PLAF events you can hit tonight and for the next week. A few that we think sound interesting:

Sonic Dances
A traveling dance piece using the city as a background, this performance just looks impressive. Don't believe us? Check out these photos of the show by Flickr user/PLAF fan Inna Spivakova. (Begins in the City Hall Courtyard, 5:30PM)

50 Ways to Kill Your Lover: A Romeo and Juliet Comedy
This Phillyist will never complain about a little Commedia dell’arte - especially when it's got to do with Shakespeare. (3rd & Wildey Streets, 6PM)

Giving up the Ghost, Cloud Tectonics, Proper Education, Rats and Alleycats...
This collection of five one-act plays is clearly targeted at a Twenty-first Century audience with short attention spans. Sweet! (2042 Amber Street, 6PM)

GROVE
Installation shot in Devil's Pool, powered by MacBook Pros. Come and go as you please. Sweet. (725 N. 4th Street, Ongoing from 5PM)

Principles of Uncertainty
We love Miro Dance Theatre. We even interviewed them once. But even if we'd never even heard of Miro before, we'd be intrigued by this performance, what with the promise of fifty drum kits onstage! (205 Race Street, 7:45PM, 8:30PM, and 9:30PM)

Sports Centered
It's about sports and it's in a bar. Need we say more? (530 South Street, 6PM)
