Frontera Fest, 2018

Originally performed under the title “The Performers of Bad News,” Rites of Warming ran for one night at Hyde Park Theatre (Austin, TX) during Frontera Fest in 2018 to warm and enthusiastic reception.

Frontera Fest is a five-weeks long festival dedicated to live performance of all kinds—theatre, dance, music, improv, comedy, performance art and beyond—which would’ve celebrated its 28th year in 2021 and, according to Ken Webster, Artistic Director of Hyde Park Theatre, is “one of Austin’s greatest arts incubators. It’s a tremendous opportunity for new playwrights, directors, and actors to try out new work, revive old work, or simply refine existing pieces.”
