More than 130 performing-arts groups are coming together for the third Capital Fringe Festival. Local participants include Theater of the First Amendment, Maida Withers Dance Construction Company, Happenstance Theater, Taffety Punk Theatre Company, and Liz Lerman Dance Exchange. From other parts of the country, there’s a comedy/drama group named Truffle Pigs, a one-man storytelling performance about Abe Lincoln, and a musical drama with masks entitled The Fiddler Ghost. Venues range from Chief Ike’s Mambo Room to Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company, Flashpoint’s Mead Theatre, Goethe-Institut, Source Theatre, Studio Theatre, and the Warehouse. In keeping with the nature of fringe festivals, everything is subject to change.
