This year’s Windsor Fringe launches tonight and organisers have described the 2015 schedule of events as ‘unmissable’.
There will be a mix of new talent and established performers from the Scruffy Song Writers to 90s band Republica during the event, which runs until Sunday, October 3.
It is an alternative to the Windsor Festival which runs between Sunday and October 4.
There is a range of free and paid-for events and many for children and families including mask making at the library and a performance of Prince Percy and the Pea.
Chairman Mike Denny said: “Windsor Fringe has been running for two weeks every autumn for many years.
“We encourage creative freedom, artistic excellence and developing new talent.”
The festival includes the 12th Windsor Fringe Kenneth Branagh Award for New Drama Writing.
Three plays were chosen from 271 scripts and will be performed and judged at Brigidine School from Thursday, October 1 to Saturday, October 3.
Ann Trewartha, a member of the organising committee said: “This year's is even more exciting and totally unmissable.”
