Rogue On! Fresno's Long-Running, Sometimes Outlandish Fringe Festival

Courtesy of The Rogue Festival
The Rogue Fest includes local and out-of-town performers like Michael Burgos whose "The Eulogy" is an 11-time internationally award-winning dark comedy.

Fresno's 10 day Rogue Fest is one of the longest running fringe festivals in the world and it's happening this week in the Tower District. There's music, theater, dance, spoken word and magic. We asked three Rogue performers to join us live in our studio: Marcel Nunis, the founder of Rogue, Heather Parish, the former executive director and Donna Kay Yarborough, a returning performer from Portland, Oregon. 

Alice Daniel was News Director for KVPR from 2019-2022. Daniel has a master’s degree from Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism and more than 25 years of experience as a print and radio journalist.
