The Tampa International Fringe Festival starts tomorrow, and we’re ready to break a leg. Uhhh, maybe not us, but the actors are.

The annual arts festival takes over Hillsborough Community College’s Ybor City campus from Wednesday, May 10 to Sunday, May 14.

Here’s a few of the upcoming performances:

  • “Breakneck Romeo and Juliet!”
    One man performs all the roles in the classic forbidden love story. Yes, including Romeo AND Juliet.
  • “Beige Glitter: gay but not good at it”
    Comedian Jeff Klein brings shares his thoughts on the gay community and how he thinks the world perceives him.
  • Paco Erhard: Worst. German. Ever.
    Stand-up Paco Erhard was kicked out of Canada, and now he aims to save America. It’s okay to laugh.
