The 2025 Omaha Fringe Festival is here!

We sat down with Nicholas Jansen, President of the Board for Omaha Fringe Festival, to bring you the full lowdown on all 20 amazing performances at this year’s festival—running August 7–10, 2025! Featuring talent from dances to one-person plays, as well as puppets and musicals, every show is bursting with creativity! This year, the Fringe expands across three iconic venues: UNO Theatre (Mainstage & Studio 006) Blackstone Theatre Shelterbelt Theatre  It’s easy to join the fun! Purchase your button ($5) and individual show tickets ($15 each), or go all in with the All Fringe Pass ($80)—granting access to every show (and more repeats if you want)! Buttons are required for entry and go directly to the Omaha Fringe Festival for operating costs.  All button art is created by local artists and chosen via an annual contest.   OMAHA FRINGE FESTIVAL CONTACT INFO: Tickets and Website:  www.omahafringe.org    HOW TO LISTEN TO THE PLATTE RIVER BARD PODCAST Listen at https://platteriverbard.podbean.com or anywhere you get your podcasts.
