Know Theatre presents The 19th Annual Cincinnati Fringe Festival - the region's largest and longest-running annual performing arts festival - June 3–18, 2022! A 14-day celebration featuring hundreds of live performances from independent local, national, and international artists, the Cincy Fringe is Cincinnati's Summer Theatre Party. This year, our Primary Lineup Productions return indoors and in-person, and is, as always, Kinda Weird. Like You!
Mo-to-the-oncle (pronounced MO-to-the-AWN-uh-kuhl) debuts at the 18th Annual Cincinnati Fringe Festival (Friday, June 4 - Saturday, June 19) via cincyfringe.com. Mo-to-the-oncle will be available to be viewed on-demand throughout the 14-day theater festival. Tickets are now on sale for $10 at cincyfringe.com, where more information is also available.
Mo-to-the-oncle is a satirical one-woman comedy play about a Bronx teenager who must wear a monocle to school after his dad loses their vision insurance. The story unfolds through a series of bold monologues performed by writer and actress Melissa Cole, who portrays at least a dozen different characters throughout the show. People always say that they just can t get into solo shows, says Cole. My background is in improv and sketch comedy, so my perspective as a creator comes through that lens. Mo-to-the-oncle is really fast-paced and fun, and I think it s a real standout in the solo show category.

The Cincinnati Fringe Festival is one of the city s first beloved summer traditions to return to form. This year, you can choose from a wide variety of outdoor in-person events and online streaming entertainment for your Fringe experience!
Last year, their necessary pivot to an all-online Fringe Festival turned their popular hometown event into a success across the nation and internationally: Fringe shows were viewed in 36 states, plus Washington DC, and by audiences in sixteen other countries across five continents. This year, they are keeping that global community alive with a lineup of video-on-demand and live-streamed performances, connecting their core Cincinnati audience with a community of Fringe fans across the world.
