Limited Engagement Performers
A First in Festival History!!
This year, the Village of Fairhaven welcomes something entirely NEW to our merriment - Limited Engagement Performers: Blades and Bravery, Jacques Ze Whipper, Dungeons and Shakespeare, Tiny Girl Big Show, Judas and Magnolia, and Witch Trials!
For the first time ever, these extraordinary stage shows will grace our stages for a short time only. Their talents are legendary, their performances unforgettable… and their visits?
Far too brief.
No repeats. No encores. When they’re gone, they’re GONE!
Each show brings something entirely different to the stage and you won’t want to miss a single one!
One enchanted season. Six limited opportunities. Endless reasons to return. Join us for a Festival season unlike any other and be part of history in the making!
