Lost and Found in the Mission Takes Best Ensemble Award in the SF Fringe Fest! Encore Performance September 26th


Here is the company outside the Exit on Taylor Theatre just moments after we learned Lost and Found in the Mission won the Best Ensemble Award! We are humbled and ecstatic. What a wonderful way to end our four-show run in this phenomenal, unpredictable festival. We really didn't expect it. Neither did we expect to sell out three out of four performances. Nor did we expect an audience member to tell us one of the post-its we refer to was his. Like Lost and Found itself, it was a festival full of surprises. (Photo by Borys Procak.)

A heartfelt thank you to our audience. We are lucky to have such great friends and family members who support us. But the Fringe also has a built-in audience. "Fringers," people who take in as many Fringe shows as they can, helped us sell out by spreading the word. Audience reviews played a part as well. One of our favorite reviews called our production ". . . A valentine to the Mission." Check out what our audience had to say: Audience Reviews.

As Best Ensemble we were invited to perform in the Best of Fringe benefit. We will give one more performance of Lost and Found in the Mission on Friday, September 26th at 8:30 at the Exit Theatre, 156 Eddy Street. Tickets are $20. Pay at the door or buy tickets online at brownpapertickets.com. All proceeds go towards funding next year's Fringe Festival.
