Fringe TheatreFest is an Unincorporated Association.
statement of intent: Fringe TheatreFest celebrates North Devon as a creative hub by offering an annual event of small-scale theatre activity that is both affordable and accessible for audience and participants that is delivered by un-juried theatre companies and practitioners who are in receipt of the box office income they generate for their contribution to the festival programme.
The aims of Fringe TheatreFest are:
- To provide an annual festival of theatre activity in North Devon
- To promote a festival that will be an un-juried event
- To endeavour that 100% of box office income is returned to the performers.

- To promote and develop the small scale theatre culture in North Devon
