Scranton Fringe Putting Down Roots in Scranton

For 10 years, Scranton Fringe has been nomadic — activating spaces across the city, transforming storefronts, theaters, and parks into stages for bold work.

Now, we have a home. But why does that matter so much?

The Sanctuary Theater at 1735 North Main Avenue is more than a venue. It’s proof that Scranton Fringe isn’t just visiting—we’re staying.

The beautiful former church sat waiting for a new purpose. Now it has one: rehearsals, workshops, performances, community gatherings, and creative risk-taking.

Old bones. New Life. Permanent presence.

We’re still activating dozens of spaces during the Festival (Oct 1–10) and year-round. But now we have an anchor. A place artists can count on. A space that says: this is where bold work lives in Scranton.

Our first show at The Sanctuary Theater: The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee Williams, opening April 9.
