It is almost time for the Rogue Festival again--it will be taking place March 1-9 in the Tower District of Fresno. Here are the 3 final Rogue Performer Preview articles! Don't miss our article about Rogue 2024 as well. We will also be posting several show reviews once the festival begins!
The wonderful arts festival known as the Rogue Festival, which takes place in the Tower District of Fresno, is nearly upon us again! This year it will be running from March 1-9. While the general idea of the Festival remains the same each year, there are always subtle differences, so we took a moment to chat with the always witty Jaguar Bennett to find out what this year’s Rogue has in store for us! Hopefully, we will get him to tell us about his show this year as well!
I’m very excited to reactivate my frequent flyer account and make my way across the continent to the Rogue Festival. (For my eighth time!) It’s still winter here in Brooklyn, but there will be flowers blooming in Fresno. I have no allergies. Let’s do this.
It is once again time for the Rogue Festival, which runs from March 3-11 in Fresno. This is one of the highlights of the Fresno arts scene each year and it takes place in the Tower District. Recently we chatted with Jaguar Bennett, who is board president and lead producer of the Rogue Festival this year, to learn more about this year's event.
Throughout the week we will be posting reviews here of Rogue shows! Check back several times a day! And then go out and enjoy the Rogue Festival! To check out our Rogue muse article & some Rogue performer preview articles go to our Arts & Entertainment section. Check out our Rogue show reviews that will be going up all week!
The Rogue Festival will be here soon-it opens on March 1! Here are 3 more local performers coming to the Rogue Festival this year, sharing about their shows-2 in guest articles, and I had the chance to interview Jaguar Bennett about his show!
The Intern is easily one of my favorite movies of the year so far! It's comedy, drama and just a feel good kind of movie. The premise is also a lot of fun and the cast is great.
In cased you somehow missed Scandal, it’s twisty and dark and set in Washington, D.C. The drama orbits around Olivia Pope, political fixer and campaign strategist. Her “gladiators in suits” are extremely loyal to her, as she has rescued each of them at one point from a personal crisis. Oh and by the way, she’s having an affair with the President.

My journey to the Rogue Festival began over a decade ago when I started a short story code-named “Crazy Grandma” that eventually became The Secret Adventures of Fat Woman & Remedial Girl, a literary novel dealing with issues of life, death, and madness narrated by a not-so-bright eleven-year old with the vocabulary of a second-grader. It also contained a lot of poop jokes. By the time I hit the eighth year and the fourth draft, I realized my book might never be published.
