The Hollywood Encore Producer Awards represent the best of the Hollywood Fringe selected by venue producers, based on artistic merit, commercial potential and development interest. The extensions immediately follow the HFF2019 and run through July in participating fringe venues. Shows receive valuable extensions giving them the opportunity for additional audience, press, awards and extensions.
This year we're excited to be working with the NYC Encore Series in helping them select shows for their festival later this year.
Past Hollywood Encore winners have gone on to further extensions in LA, around the country and the world.
Some of these productions included Pulp Shakespeare, Pokemusical, Sunny Afternoon, My Penis in and Out of Trouble, Bad Arm, The Birthday Boys, Take Me To the Poorhouse, The Devil and Billy Markham, I am Google, Who Loves You Baby, Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde and Meet & Greet.
