Boy Trouble | Custom Buttons Edmonton August 12 2019
Summer is fringe festival season and we are always all here for it. The Edmonton Fringe Festival 2019 is running in the later part of August and if there is any chance of you being in the city then, you should head out and see some of the great shows happening this year.
Boy Trouble is Playing This Month at the Edmonton Fringe Festival
One show you will want to put onto your schedule is Boy Trouble. It is a show developed by an exciting team of emerging Edmonton artists from Vena Amoris Projects and focuses on a queer teen's coming-of-age story. The star of the show is emerging Edmonton actor Max Hanic.
The show explores questions of toxic masculinity and anonymous online encounters. Sure it is some heavy modern day subject matter, but the writing by Mac Brook is both comedic and dramatic.
There will be 6 showings of Boy Trouble starting August 15 and running until August 25. You can check out the times and buy your tickets online.
Annnd if you do get to see Boy Trouble, look out for some awesome custom fringe buttons we got to make for the show.
Buttons Over Playbills: Something for Playgoers to Hold Onto
According to the show's writer Mac Brock:
"We chose to print buttons through People Power Press to reduce the waste that comes from Fringe handbills, and give festival attendees a more personal way to remember our show that is less likely to wind up in a garbage bin the next day."
The buttons are the standard 2.25" round button size, which boldly showcases the show's great graphics for a great show souvenir. Paper handbills are easily tossed, but a button is a great thing to gift those who have come out to support your show and your work. If you are fundraising, you can even offer all designs on sale at the show for people to collect.

Boy Trouble is produced by the independent Edmonton performing arts company Vena Amoris Projects.
