Is there a Performance artist sleeping on your couch? Are you sure? Check again—look in the crannies. Because the Fringe Festival, the self-described “largest multi-arts festival in North America!” (if that doesn’t get the heart pumping …) is in town. This year’s lineup includes watershed theatrical events such as Perez Hilton Saves the Universe, Nudists in Love: A New Musical, and our personal favorite: Blanche Survives Katrina in a FEMA Trailer Named Desire. As Granny always said, “One girl’s fringe is another girl’s festival.”

[Fringe Festival, August 8-24, www.fringenyc.org for schedule]
