This is a milestone year for the Cincinnati Fringe Festival — its 20th iteration. In a recent phone conversation with CityBeat, Katie Hartman, back for her second year as the Fringe producer, said that this year’s 40 performances were selected from 100 applicants. Presented from June 2-17, the 2023 Fringe Festival will utilize six venues across Over-the-Rhine: Know Theatre (1120 Jackson St., the Fringe headquarters), three lecture halls at the Art Academy of Cincinnati (1212 Jackson St.), Gabriel’s Corner (Sycamore at Liberty) and 1316 Main St.
